QuestionQ46

NETCONF/XML API

What mechanism is used to guarantee uniqueness for element names and data values in an XML document?

  • A a namespace
  • B a section
  • C an attribute
  • D a tag
Explanation

XML namespaces, as defined by the W3C Namespaces in XML specification, provide a method to qualify element and attribute names by associating them with a unique identifier (typically a URI), which prevents naming collisions when combining XML vocabularies from different sources. This ensures that element names and data values remain unique and unambiguous within a document.
