Tremendously excited to see that the xRAN Forum (www.xran.org) has adopted IETF’s NETCONF/YANG standard for programmatically configuring and managing its lower layer split RAN architecture. Not only will the use of native YANG models ensure the easiest route to full multi-vendor interoperability in the future disaggregated RAN, it should facilitate the integration of the management for the lower layer split deployment into existing systems. Importantly, the use of augmented IETF standard YANG models, together with xRAN specific models, lays the foundation for cross-domain orchestration of the RAN with other domains that have already adopted NETCONF/YANG.

Very well done, Mark! To sway the an entire industry to move from SOAP to YANG based management is no little achievement. Extremely useful for the RAN industry, extremely useful for us. This is fantastic!
