Which two statements about NETCONF are true?

NETCONF (Network Configuration Protocol) operates through different layers, with the operations layer being particularly important for managing configurations:

Operations Layer (A & D): This layer is responsible for actions like locking and committing the configuration on a Junos device. The lock operation prevents other sessions from modifying the configuration, and the commit operation applies the configuration changes to the device.

Options B and Care incorrect because the messages layer handles the communication aspects, such as exchanging data between the client and server, not performing configuration operations like locking and committing.

IETF RFC 6241 (NETCONF): Describes the protocol layers and their functions, with a focus on the operations layer.
