This NED is equipped with a number of runtime configuration options "NED settings" allowing for
customization by the end user. All options are configurable using the NSO API for NED settings.
Most NED settings can be configured globally, per device profile or per device instance in the
following locations:
global
/ncs:devices/global-settings/ned-settings/sfr-nbe300/
profile
/ncs:devices/ncs:profiles/profile:/ned-settings/sfr-nbe300/
device
/ncs:/device/devices/device:/ned-settings/sfr-nbe300/
Profiles setting overrides global-settings and device settings override profile settings,
hence the narrowest scope of the setting is used by the device.
If user changes a ned-setting, then user must reconnect to the device, i.e.
disconnect and connect in order for the new setting to take effect.
From the NSO CLI the device instance NED settings for this NED are available under:
# config
# devices device dev-1 ned-settings sfr-nbe300
Press TAB to see all the NED settings.
- sfr-nbe300 extended-parser <enum> (default auto)
Make the NED enable extensions to ease the task of the NSO CLI command parser. A common
problem with this parser is that it can easily get lost when trying to parse configuration not
supported by the YANG model. In particular it is very sensitive for unsupported config that
generates a mode switch.
auto - Uses turbo-mode when available, will use fastest availablemethod to load
data to NSO. If NSO doesn't support data-loading from CLI NED, robust-mode
is used.
robust-mode - The configuration dump is run through a pre-parser which is cleaning it from
all elements currently not supported in the YANG model (default).
turbo-mode - The NED executes the whole command parsing by itself, completely bypassing
the NSO CLI parser. The configuration dump is transferred to NSO using a
Maapi SetValues() call.
turbo-xml-mode - The NED executes the whole command parsing by itself, completely bypassing
the NSO CLI parser. The configuration dump is transferred to NSO in XML
format.
2. ned-settings sfr-nbe300 connection
Configure settings specific to the connection between NED and device.
- connection number-of-retries <uint8> (default 0)
Configure max number of retries the NED will try to connect to the device before giving up.
Default 0.
- connection time-between-retry <uint8> (default 1)
Configure the time in seconds the NED will wait between each connect retry. Default 1s.
- connection connector <WORD>
Change the default connector, e.g. 'ned-connector-default.json'.
- connection ssh client <enum>
Configure the SSH client to use. Relevant only when using the NED with NSO 5.6 or later.
ganymed - The legacy SSH client. Used on all older versions of NSO.
sshj - The new SSH client with support for the latest crypto features. This is the default
when using the NED on NSO 5.6 or later.
- connection ssh host-key known-hosts-file <string>
Path to openssh formatted 'known_hosts' file containing valid host keys.
- connection ssh host-key public-key-file <string>
Path to openssh formatted public (.pub) host key file.
- connection ssh auth-key private-key-file <string>
Path to openssh formatted private key file.
- logger level <enum> (default debug)
Set level of logging.
error - error.
info - info.
verbose - verbose.
debug - debug.
- logger java <true|false> (default true)
Toggle logs to be added to ncs-java-vm.log.
5. ned-settings sfr-nbe300 proxy
Configure NED to access device via a proxy.
- proxy remote-connection <enum>
Connection type between ned, proxy and device.
ssh - Start a new ssh client on proxy and connect to device (i.e. will launch
interactive shell on proxy).
telnet - Start a new telnet client on proxy and connect to device (i.e. will launch
interactive shell on proxy).
serial - Connect through a terminal server to device.
ssh-direct - Direct forward to device using ned local ssh client (i.e. without shell on
proxy).
telnet-direct - Direct forward to device using ned local telnet client (i.e. without shell on
proxy).
- proxy remote-address <union>
Address of host behind the proxy.
- proxy remote-port <uint16>
Port of host behind the proxy.
- proxy remote-name <string>
User name on the device behind the proxy.
- proxy remote-password <string>
Password on the device behind the proxy.
- proxy remote-secondary-password <string>
Second password (e.g. enable) on the device behind the proxy .WARNING MUST UPDATE connector
template to use!.
- proxy authgroup <WORD>
Authentication credentials for the device behind the proxy.
- proxy proxy-prompt <string>
Prompt pattern on the proxy host before connecting to device.
- proxy remote-ssh-args <string>
Additional arguments used to establish proxy connection.
- proxy auth-key private-key-file <string>
Path to openssh formatted private key file for doing public key auth to device behind proxy.
- proxy host-key-validation <true|false> (default false)
Set this to true to force host-key validation of device behind proxy.
6. ned-settings sfr-nbe300 proxy-2
Configure NED to access device via a second proxy.
- proxy-2 remote-connection <enum>
Connection type between ned, proxy and device.
ssh - Start a new ssh client on proxy and connect to device (i.e. will launch
interactive shell on proxy).
telnet - Start a new telnet client on proxy and connect to device (i.e. will launch
interactive shell on proxy).
serial - Connect through a terminal server to device.
ssh-direct - Direct forward to device using ned local ssh client (i.e. without shell on
proxy).
telnet-direct - Direct forward to device using ned local telnet client (i.e. without shell on
proxy).
- proxy-2 remote-address <union>
Address of host behind the proxy.
- proxy-2 remote-port <uint16>
Port of host behind the proxy.
- proxy-2 remote-name <string>
User name on the device behind the proxy.
- proxy-2 remote-password <string>
Password on the device behind the proxy.
- proxy-2 remote-secondary-password <string>

Path to openssh formatted private key file for doing public key auth to device behind proxy.
- proxy-2 host-key-validation <true|false> (default false)
Set this to true to force host-key validation of device behind proxy.
