OpenConfig Models
Supported models in OpenConfig plugin 1.1.
Using the OpenConfig standard data models can help ease deployment of your network
infrastructure. The data models are:
- vendor-neutral: They do not conform to any individual vendor's implementation of
network infrastructure.
- operationally complete: The models only conform to the most widely used
networking feature and are not meant to be exhaustive.
- consistent: Each model follows the same approach and style, working with each
model should feel familiar.
- monitoring: Each model should allow you to easily monitor your network
infrastructure.
Palo Alto Network's implementation of the standard data models conform to the
specifications from the OpenConfig project. The OpenConfig project is open source and
allows contributions from network operators, equipment vendors, and the wider community.
This means that many third party websites can be helpful in understanding your own
implementation, including thing like the
.You can view the public
OpenConfig Github Repository to understand each of the
models in detail if you use a mixture of vendors to employ your network infrastructure.
For each of the models, Palo Alto Network's implementation supports a number of leaf
nodes, but they are not exhaustive. Some versions of OpenConfig may support different
nodes available in the model. Review the supported data models, and their deviations of
viewing the
YANG repository on Github. These standard data
models are supported with the OpenConfig plugin, they are not exhaustive in nature, but
do enable you to interact with network component for PAN-OS using standard syntax:
