What's new in ConfD 7.6?

With the release of ConfD 7.6, we've added several exciting new features including:

The ConfD installers are now cryptographically signed and delivered as self-unpacking archives which include the installer and the signature.
CDB oper has been extended to support operational config nodes in compliance with the operation-state datastore defined in RFC 8342 “Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA)”.
The performance of outputting XPath evaluation to a trace log has been considerably improved.
The linuxcfg example now supports NMDA with the latest revisions of IETF YANG models and data provider application updates.

Check out the most important enhancements, changes, and deprecations in the release highlights.

Understanding the YANG Push Standard

In order to monitor network health and changes, operators need to be able to collect statistical, performance, and status information from the devices in their network. But, the traditional poll model of collecting this data has hit a dead-end.

Watch this webinar recording to learn about the YANG Push standard which enables a more efficient and configurable way for Network Devices to push data to subscribed clients, and to understand how ConfD supports this standard.
