                Notification Message Headers and Bundles
              draft-ietf-netconf-notification-messages-04

Abstract

   This document defines a new notification message format, using yang-
   data.  Included are:

   o  a new notification mechanism and encoding to replace the one way
      operation of RFC-5277

   o  a set of common, transport agnostic message header objects.

   o  how to bundle multiple event records into a single notification
      message.

   o  how to ensure these new capabilities are only used with capable
      receivers.

1.  Introduction

   Mechanisms to support subscription to event notifications and yang
   datastore push are being defined in
   [I-D.draft-ietf-netconf-subscribed-notifications] and
   [I-D.ietf-netconf-yang-push].  Work on those documents has shown that
   notifications described in [RFC7950] section 7.16 could benefit from
   transport independent headers.  Communicating the following
