Application of the OpenConfg YANG model in the native network automation
Zhaoyang Li, Bo Zhou, Zongju Xiong, Wanbin Zhang, Xiaofeng Zhang · 2024
This article starts from the perspective of operators, analyzes the many difficulties faced by traditional technologies in the process of data center network management, and points out that data model-driven management is the preferred paradigm for solving large-scale cross-platform network operation and maintenance challenges. Furthermore, it proposes a method for constructing a unified data model-driven native network automation operation and maintenance technology architecture based on the OpenConfig YANG model, and practices this method in a simulated network environment through Go language programming. Thus, a more automated and intelligent closed-loop network operation and maintenance concept centered on the operator's intention can be achieved.
