3.2.1 Abstract Data Model

This section describes a conceptual model of possible data organization that an implementation maintains to participate in this protocol. The described organization is provided to facilitate the explanation of how the protocol behaves. This document does not mandate that implementations adhere to this model as long as their external behavior is consistent with that described in this document.

OSImageUnattend: unattended instructions for deployed OS that MAY be present on the client machine.

Client Configuration: A temporary storage mechanism where the client stores the configuration information.

Client Metadata: Temporary storage which records the deployment agent metadata in the server's response to the WDSDCMGR_OP_QUERY_METADATA opcode. This is a list of strings in the format specified by the ABNF grammar given in section 2.2.9. The list is initially empty.
