Specifying Whether Configuration Groups Are Displayed Separately

By default, the Junos XML protocol server displays the tag element for each user-defined
configuration group as a child of the
as children of the elements to which they are applied. This display mode parallels the
default behavior of the CLI configuration mode
[edit groups] hierarchy as a separate hierarchy in the configuration.
To request that the Junos XML protocol server not display the
tag elements separately, but instead enclose tag elements inherited from user-defined
groups within the inheriting tag elements, a client application includes the
attribute in the
<get-configuration/>
the request in an tag element:
<rpc>
<rpc>
<get-configuration inherit="inherit"/>
<!-- OR -->
<get-configuration inherit="inherit">
<!-- tag elements for the configuration elements to return -->
</get-configuration>
</rpc>
To request that the Junos XML protocol server include tag elements that are inherited
from the junos-defaults group as well as user-defined configuration groups, the client
application includes the inherit="defaults"
opening
<get-configuration>
<rpc>
<get-configuration inherit="defaults"/>
<!-- OR -->
<get-configuration inherit="defaults">
<!-- tag elements for the configuration elements to return -->
</get-configuration>
</rpc>
For information about the tag elements to enclose in the
see "Specifying the Scope of Configuration Information to Return" on page 81.
