IOS XR 9000 Netconf-yang

Hi all,

I'm wondering if some one may assist with netconf-yang on IOS-XRv version 6, Cisco documentation seems to be very limited here.

<edit-config> and <commit> seem to work well but i am having trouble with basic things like "no <command>".

Example: "no shutdown" for an interface. the "http://cisco.com/ns/yang/Cisco-IOS-XR-ifmgr-cfg"; yang file state that the existence <shutdown> tag will shut the desired interface. So the following XML works fine on an admin up interface.

<edit-config>
   <target>
       <candidate />
    </target>
<config>
       <interface-configurations xmlns="http://cisco.com/ns/yang/Cisco-IOS-XR-ifmgr-cfg">
           <interface-configuration>
               <active>act</active>
               <interface-name>GigabitEthernet0/0/0/1</interface-name>
               <InterfaceModeNonPhysical>0</InterfaceModeNonPhysical>
               <shutdown/>
           </interface-configuration>
       </interface-configurations>
</config>
</edit-config>

There seems to be no reference to how to enable "no shut" the interface. I would except the below

<edit-config>
   <target>
       <candidate />
    </target>
<config>
       <interface-configurations xmlns="http://cisco.com/ns/yang/Cisco-IOS-XR-ifmgr-cfg">
           <interface-configuration>
               <active>act</active>
               <interface-name>GigabitEthernet0/0/0/1</interface-name>
               <InterfaceModeNonPhysical>0</InterfaceModeNonPhysical>
           </interface-configuration>
       </interface-configurations>
</config>
</edit-config>

This is accepted by the router and committed but the interface admin state does not change

Thanks in advance

I tried <shutdown>false</shutdown> but got rpc bad tag error !

To explicitly negate the shutdown node, which I suspect is a leaf of type "empty" - which is why <shutdown>false</shutdown> doesn't work, you'd need to send the node with a delete function, something like:

<shutdown xmlns:nc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" nc:operation="delete"/>

Delete will work once, if you try to run it again it will complain because the shutdown statement is "false"

The right way to do it is <shutdown xc:operation="remove"/> as it will ignore the shutdown statement if it's not already present in the config. (thanks to my co-worker for the help on this !)

Hope it helps
