Nokia SR Linux makes extensive use of structured data models. Each application regardless if it's being provided by Nokia or written by a user against the NDK has a YANG model that defines its configuration and state.

With this design, the YANG data model is defined first, then the CLI, APIs, and show output formats are derived from it.

A central role that is given to YANG in SR Linux Network OS demands a convenient interface to browse, search through and process these data models.

To answer these demands this portal provides:

  • Fast Path Browser to effectively search through thousands of available YANG paths
  • Beautiful Tree browser to traverse the tree representation of the entire YANG data model of SR Linux
  • Source .yang files neatly stored in a nokia/srlinux-yang-models repository for programmatic access and code generation
