Information About XMLIN
The XMLIN tool converts CLI commands to the Network Configuration (NETCONF) protocol format.
NETCONF is a network management protocol that provides mechanisms to install, manipulate, and delete
the configuration of network devices. It uses XML-based encoding for configuration data and protocol
messages. The NX-OS implementation of the NETCONF protocol supports the following protocol operations:
<get>, <edit-config>, <close-session>, <kill-session>, and <exec-command>.
