+# RESTCONF get-config
+
+This is an example Python script that literally just grabs the entiere config of a network element.
+
+It's not just what you would see from the CLI exec command "show running-config". 
+You'll get everything. From all known open-models, and the native-model (which is the translation of the running config a human is used to).
+
+# requirements
+-- IOS-XE running >/= 16.3.1 also enabled for RESTCONF
+
+# running
+-- Can run on-box or off-box.
