ITU-T Recommendations

Recommendation ITU-T X.785 defines a set of guidelines for managed object modelling and a management interface for representational state transfer (REST)-based network management. It is part of a framework for REST based network management interfaces. It specifies how REST-based management interfaces should be defined. It covers the generic accessing methods of REST-based managed objects, accessing methods for specific managed object (Mos), information modelling in REST / hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) and YAML ain't markup language (YAML) / JavaScript object notation (JSON) schemas. Some HTTP requests/responses and YAML/JSON schemas are provided for defining some basic data types: generic managed object (MO) and generic MO accessing methods.
