ChangedConfig—Read only from the changes made to the target configuration for the current
session. This option effectively gets the configuration changes made from the current session since
the last configuration commit. This option corresponds to the CLI command show configuration.
CurrentConfig—Read from the current active running configuration. This option corresponds to the
CLI command show configuration running.
MergedConfig—Read from the target configuration for this session. This option should provide a
view of the resultant running configuration if the current target configuration is committed without
errors. For example, in the case of the "best effort" commit, some portions of the commit could fail,
while others succeed. MergedConfig is the default when the Source attribute is not specified on the
<Get> operation. This option corresponds to the CLI command show configuration merge.
