Informations about libnetconf #7

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hello, i'm an university student and i would like to use libnetconf for my 
college internship; our goal is to show how Netconf can be used to manipulate a 
network device; do libnetconf provide all the instruments required for this? Is 
the Server partially implemented? What kind of device can act as Netconf 
Server? A Linux or Windows PC can act as Netconf Server? Thank you so much for 
your help!

Hi Vittorio,
libnetconf provides NETCONF protocol implementation - specific network device 
configuration is a little bit out of scope. Specific changes to a specific 
device are always up to a server built on top of libnetconf, however it now 
provides the mechanism called TransAPI (see 
https://libnetconf.googlecode.com/git/src/transapi/generator/README) to simply 
add functions controlling (configuring) a device.

Server, available as a part of the source codes, is just an example of 
libnetconf usage - it actually controls just a virtual device.

libnetconf can run on GNU/Linux systems. Usual platform is x86/x86_64 PC, but 
it is also succesfully used on various SoHo devices with OpenWRT platform.

I hope these answers will help you. Next time, please use our mailing-list 
(http://groups.google.com/group/libnetconf) instead of the issue tracker.

Best regards,
Radek Krejci
