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/redhat-ansible/
profile
/ncs:devices/ncs:profiles/profile:/ned-settings/redhat-ansible/
device
/ncs:/device/devices/device:/ned-settings/redhat-ansible/
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 redhat-ansible
Press TAB to see all the NED settings.
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 ssl accept-any <true|false> (default false)
Accept any SSL certificate presented by the device. Warning!
This enables Man in the Middle attacks and should only be used
for testing and troubleshooting.
- connection ssl certificate <binary>
SSL certificate stored in DER format but since it is entered
as Base64 it is very similar to PEM but without banners like "-----
BEGIN CERTIFICATE -----". Default uses the default trusted certificates
installed in Java JVM. An easy way to get the PEM of a server:
openssl s_client -connect HOST:PORT
