Description-en: Python library for NETCONF clients
ncclient is a Python library that facilitates client-side scripting
and application development around the NETCONF protocol.
.
NETCONF (Network Configuration Protocol) provides mechanisms to install,
manipulate, and delete the configuration of network devices. Its operations
are realized on top of a simple remote procedure call (RPC) layer.
.
The NETCONF protocol uses an Extensible Markup Language (XML) based data
encoding for the configuration data as well as the protocol messages.
