The device management protocol NETCONF is applicable to a wide range of
devices in a variety of environments. The emergence of Web Services gives
one such environment, and is presently characterized by the use of SOAP
over HTTP. NETCONF finds many benefits in this environment: from the re-use
of existing standards, to ease of software development, to integration with
deployed systems. Herein, we describe a SOAP over HTTP binding that, when
used with persistent HTTP connections, yields an application protocol
sufficient for NETCONF.
