Subtree filtering question

[Vincent Cridlig <vincent.cridlig@loria.fr>]

Hi,

I have some questions about subtree filtering process in Netconf.

How do I select with subtree filtering only users (with all their information) which belong to dept 3 ?
In Xpath, it will be /top/users/user[company-info/dept='3'].

I was thinking of the following request but I feel like it will select all users and will simply discard the company-info node when dept is not 3.

    <rpc message-id="101"
         xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
      <get-config>
        <source>
          <running/>
        </source>
        <filter type="subtree">
          <top xmlns="http://example.com/schema/1.2/config";>
            <users>
              <user>
                <name/>
                <type/>
                <company-info>
                  <dept>3</dept>
                </company-info>
              </user>
            </users>
          </top>
        </filter>
      </get-config>
    </rpc>


Is it right to say that a node (like for example user) can only be discarded by a content match node which is a direct child of it 
(but not by a child which is two levels or more under the considered node) ?

Another comment is that, in xpath capability, it would be great to specify how namespaces and context prefix are handled, as it has been done for subtree filtering.


Thanks,
Vincent
