This application is a part of the Netopeer2 software bundle, but compiled and installed separately. It is a NETCONF client with
a command line interface developed and primarily used for Netopeer2 server testing, but allowing all the standards and even
some optional features of a full-fledged NETCONF client.
Netopeer2-cli serves as a generic NETCONF client providing a simple interactive command line interface. It allows you to
establish a NETCONF session with a NETCONF-enabled device on the network and to obtain and manipulate its configuration
data.
6.2.5 Workflow in application practice
In practical application, we use the YANG language to model the device and generate the YANG model. The model is then
instantiated to generate configuration files in XML format. The device was then configured using this configuration file as input
via netopeer.
