Performance Improvement Methods for NETCONF-Based Configuration Management

摘要

IETF's NETCONF WG has taken efforts in standardizing configuration management protocol, which allows high interoperability of configuration management. In addition to interoperability, high performance is also required in configuration management, but many researches have often discarded the performance aspect of it. In order to fill that void, this paper proposes methods to improve performance with layers of NETCONF. It demonstrates and compares the performance evaluations to verify the efficiency of the proposed methods. This evaluation can be used as a guideline to effectively implement NETCONF. Moreover, it also demonstrates the process of performance evaluation of configuration management.
