Get Request of Nonexistent Data: Example

The following example shows a native data request to get the configuration values for a particular BGP

neighbor similar to the previous example. However, in this example the client application is requesting

the configuration for a nonexistent neighbor. Instead of returning an error, the Cisco CRS-1 Series router

returns the requested object class hierarchy, but without any data.

Note Whenever a client application attempts to get nonexistent data, the Cisco CRS-1 Series router usually

cannot treat this as an error and returns the empty object class hierarchy in the response.
