Stateful management of network device configurations

Abstract

An example method may include receiving first configuration data associated with a network device, the first configuration data comprising a Yet Another Next Generation (YANG) payload; determining a first subset of the YANG payload that is associated with a first network configuration database; determining a first database transaction, wherein the first database transaction represents one or more database updates to the first network configuration database that is determined based on a first state of the network device and one or more configuration requirements represented by the first subset; discarding the first database transaction; determining second configuration data based on the first database transaction, the second configuration data comprising a command line representation (CLI) of the YANG payload; and providing the second configuration data to a system, the system configured to display the command line representation to a user.
