example, all of the configuration data for a particular Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) neighbor. The
term "table" is used more specifically to denote a type of container that holds a list of named
homogeneous objects. For example, the BGP neighbor address table contains a list of neighbor
addresses, each of which is identified by its IP address. All table entries in the Cisco CRS-1 Series
Carrier Routing System (Cisco CRS-1 Series) XML API are identified by the unique value of their
<Naming> element.

XML Request for All Configuration Data

Use the empty <Configuration/> tag to retrieve the entire configuration object class hierarchy.
The following example shows how to get the entire configuration hierarchy by specifying the empty
<Configuration/> tag.
