RE: bidirectionality
hi
This is similar to the asynchronous messaging issue which many people have
been discussing in the hallways. I've been looking into this offline. There
is nothing in the specifications that I can tell that precludes this, it
would just be a matter of defining it.
The model that seems the most straightforward is for the manager to initiate
the session, but to send a command that triggers these refresh messages to
come from the network element. If there is interest in how to do this, we
could create a draft or do a presentation. I believe it is important to get
Netconf 1.0 out the door first and then build on top of this though.

Hi Margaret,
Thanks for the reply, I'm asking this because in my scenario what I have to
implement, the server
has to notify the client in order to "refresh" some specific information
through a netconf session. Does it make sense to extend the netconf protocol
to allow this? I mean implementing the BEEP protocol
just for having bidirectionality it seems for me a little bit burdensome and
inconvenient.
Thanks
Cristian

As specified, NETCONF over SSH does not provide bidirectionality.
The SSH client is always the NETCONF manager.
