NETCONF¶
Overview¶
The NETCONF projects hosts multiple components relating to IETF’s NETCONF Working Group:
Northbound and southbound plugins for NETCONF protocol, as described in RFC-6241
Northbound plugin for RESTCONF protocol, as described in RFC-8040
Northbound plugin for RESTCONF protocol, as described in an early draft
Northnound plugin for descring RESTCONF endpoint in terms of OpenAPI 3.0
Behavior/Feature Changes¶
The RFC8040 endpoint now correctly rejects consecutive slash characters in request URL. The previous
behavior of silently accepting such requests can be restored through setting the
org.opendaylight.restconf.url.consecutive-slashes system property to allow. Valid options are also
debug and warn, which cause offending requests to be accepted, but logged to the system log.
The netcon-node-topology YANG model has been updated to correctly mark the presence of OpenDaylight’s
yang-ext:mount extension. This does not affect the implementation, but improves interoperability with
external system.
The default port for call-home has been updated to 4334, bringing it to compliance with RFC8071.
New Features¶
There are no new features.
Deprecated and Removed Features¶
The old RESTCONF endpoint localhost:8181/restconf, as installed via odl-restconf-nb-bierman02 feature,
is now considered obsolete and is not installed by default. Users are advised to migrate to using the
RFC8040-compliant endpoint localhost:8181/rests, as installed via odl-restconf-nb-rfc8040. The support
for the old endpoint will be removed in the next major release.
