REST web service is the northbound interface to the SLX-OS platform, used to manage the nodes.
REST web service supports all Create, Read, Update, and Delete (CRUD) operations on the configuration data and supports the YANG-RPC commands.
REST web service leverages HTTP and HTTPS, and uses its standard methods to perform the operations on the resources. A web server embedded in the SLX-OS devices is used to serve the REST API to the clients.
