NETCONF defines standard operations: <get>, <get-config>, <edit-config>, <copy-config>, <delete-config>, <lock>, <unlock>, <close-session>, <kill-session>. <commit> is used in the candidate configuration model but is not a base operation; it's an optional capability. <rpc> is the message wrapper, not an operation.
