UX Configuration Frankfurt

What it is

• User is a service person, familiar with the device and know what he/ she is doing

• Flexible tool that is available without addtional need of implementation

• Allow access to all fields, specified by yang-specifications with less restrictions

• Generic and generated user interface, generated by yang specs and capabilites of a device.

What it not is

• Debug/Test tool to get detailed failure feedback or analysis support

• ODL/RESTCONF is used as it is by UC Configuration. RESTCONF is not part of this UX Project .. see Opendaylight project.

Features

• Read yang specifications and generate related User interface out of it

  • Provide yang description as tool tip for fields

  • Consider specified type for input fields

  • Provide read and write access

• Access to most of available configuration options via ODL/RESTCONF. 

• User can configure all fields

Limitations

• Failures are shown as provided by RESTCONF

• If device is not implementing yang parts this condition is reported as "Error 404", because there is not device knowledge in the app.

• There is no warning or hint for any misconfiguration, that could be done by a user. As consequence this app shouldn't be used for productive devices.
