The present invention relates to a home network management method based on an NETCONF relay. In a home network scene, by establishing the NETCONF relay in a border router, an operator obtains the home network internal information indirectly, thereby operating the home network internal equipment. According to the present invention, and under the home network scene, an NETCONF agent is established in the border router, at the same time, the internal network configuration information is obtained by the internal protocols, such as HNCP, OSPF etc., and then the information is converted into an NETCONF data format, and is upwards submitted to an NETCONF management terminal at the operator side in the relay manner, so that the operator obtains the configuration condition of the home network internal equipment indirectly, and the purpose of managing and maintaining the internal home network remotely is achieved.
