Sample Session: Performing An Action - Siemens RX1400 Reference Manual

Chapter 1
Introduction
• All commands must be enclosed within <rpc> tags. The message-id attribute is not required but is
recommended. The message-id attribute is returned in the device response, allowing you to match
responses with requests.
• The <source> element indicates the datastore from which we are requesting data. In this example we are
requesting data from the running configuration database.
• The <filter> element encloses the data model tags. The type="subtree" attribute is mandatory.
• The <admin> element is the root of the RUGGEDCOM admin namespace. Within the <admin> element,
additional elements navigate down to the desired element. In this example, we are navigating to admin/
system-name in the RUGGEDCOM NETCONF data model.
• The ]]>]]> string indicates the end of the NETCONF message. Each NETCONF message must end with
]]>]]>
The device responds with the requested data:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rpc-reply xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" message-id="1001">
<data>
<admin xmlns="http://ruggedcom.com/ns/rmf_admin">
<system-name>Substation Ethernet Switch 2</system-name>
</admin>
</data>
</rpc-reply>]]>]]>
• The <rpc-reply> element contains the response. Notice the message-id attribute returned with the
<rpc-reply> element; it corresponds to the <message-id> sent in the <rpc> request.
4. After receiving the data, close the session:
<rpc message-id="1002" xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
<close-session/>
</rpc>]]>]]>
The device responds with the following and closes the session:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rpc-reply xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" message-id="1002">
<ok/>
</rpc-reply>]]>]]
