Discuss Nokia 4A0-F10 Exam Topic 5 Question 5

A network controller must modify configuration data stored on a NETCONF-capable access device. Which NETCONF operation is designed for this purpose?

A<get-config>

B<edit-config>

C<close-session>

D<kill-session>

Suggested Answer: B

The NETCONF <edit-config> operation is used to create, change, merge, replace, or delete configuration data in a target configuration datastore. The target can be a datastore such as running or candidate, depending on the capabilities supported by the network device. By comparison, <get-config> retrieves configuration data and does not modify it. <close-session> requests an orderly termination of the current NETCONF session, while <kill-session> forces the termination of another session identified by its session ID. NETCONF operations are carried within RPC messages and commonly transported over a secure protocol such as SSH. YANG models define the structure, types, constraints, and relationships of the configuration and operational data manipulated through NETCONF.

I’m a bit confused because sounds like it might also relate to configuration, but I know it’s for retrieving data, not modifying it.
