What happen if the device does not support netconf?

[Ivan Sanchez]

Hi,

I have a few questions, I know that NSO can manage devices that do not support Netconf, but in those cases which southbound protocol NSO use to manage the device, and also how uses the yang models in this escenario?

Thanks.

NSO can use pretty much any protocol to talk to devices. The most common, by far, is CLI, but there are NEDs using REST, SOAP, TL1, Corba, SNMP, ... The NED team is creating YANG model descriptions of everything that can be managed (configured, monitored, executed, notifications received) on the device.
