netconf device sync fromm get Protocol error

sm000x

‎02-18-2024 10:56 AM

Hi,

I have a strange issue and I cannot figure out what was wrong.

I have a netconf device but when I do sync-from I got error:
admin@ncs> request devices device zrdm60gcsmf01 sync-from
result false
info Failed to connect to device zrdm60gcsmf01: Protocol error
[ok][2024-02-18 13:33:20]
admin@ncs> exit

and the trace log size is 0:
-rw-rw-r--. 1 sm000x sm000x 0 Feb 18 13:33 netconf-zrdm60gcsmf01.trace

However, I am able to use
ssh -s sm000x@zrdm60gcsmf01-ip-addess -p 22 netconf

to invoke the netconf (Although it takes longer than usual time)

The device type is netconf:
admin@ncs> show configuration devices device zrdm60gcsmf01
address x.x.x.x;
port 22;
authgroup SMF;
device-type {
netconf {
ned-id smf-nc-1.0;
}
}
state {
admin-state unlocked;
}

I am able to do sync-from to other device with the same authgroup and ned-id:
dmin@ncs> request devices device z68bcsmf01 sync-from
result true
[ok][2024-02-18 13:49:42]

admin@ncs> show configuration devices device z68bcsmf01
address x.x.x.x;
port 22;
authgroup SMF;
device-type {
netconf {
ned-id smf-nc-1.0;
}
}
state {
admin-state unlocked;
}


Does anyone have same expierence?
What does "Protocol error" mean?

Hi, cohult:

Thank you so very much for your input.
I will contact the device manager to investigate your suggestion.

Hi @sm000x,
As an example, the device manager (vendor A) can, for their OpenSSH server, separate the NETCONF port from the CLI port, with NETCONF on its IANA assigned port 830. Example device /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

 

Port 22
Port 830
...
Match LocalPort 830
    PasswordAuthentication yes
    AuthenticationMethods publickey password
    ForceCommand /path/to/bin/netconf-subsys
    ...
Match all
PasswordAuthentication no
AuthenticationMethods publickey keyboard-interactive
ForceCommand /path/to/bin/confd_cli
...
Subsystem	netconf    /path/to/bin/netconf-subsys

 

Another option is to run two sshd instances serving either the CLI or NETCONF on separate ports.

Hi,

If the keyboard-interactive authentication type is enabled for the device SSH server, try disabling it.
sm000x: I do not know how to check and how do disable it.

Here is the -vv ssh:

Hello,

Regarding the trace, maybe you need to enable them.

 

 

devices device <device_name> trace raw
commit dry-run
commit
devices device <device_name> connect

 



Can you also execute the following  command and post the output

 

devices device <device_name> connect | detail debug
#sync-from but if it's fails for the connect it will also  fail for the sync-from
devices device <device_name> sync-from | detail debug

 

Regarding the other devices  , are they using the same version ? Same config ssh/netconf config ?

sm000x: No, the other device is older OS version. The device in question is the newer version. Therefore, ssh/netconf might or might not be the same.

Can you switch to netconf ned & check if the connect is working ? ( IF you have no services on it otherwise create a new device that use the previous ip 

devices device <device-name> device-type netconf ned-id netconf
