Callhome using Libnetconf2

[vprasad]

Hi , We want to implement the netconf callhome feature using Libnetconf2 . For implementing callhome we have our own yang and we have our own retry algorithm based on exponential backoff on all registered callhome configured destination. So i was going through the libnetconf2 callhome Api "nc_connect_ch_client_dispatch" which basically does the callhome and implements the retry algorithm ,etc internally based on the ietf-netconf-server.yang . However all the retry ,etc we need to implement ourself.Only we need some APi from libnetconf 2 which can do a callhome on a given IP and Port and return success/failures in case the netconf server was able to successfully connect to the client .Is there any similar API available currently in libnetconf2?If no how can i achieve this using Libnetconf2 .

Thanks,

Hi, such a usage was not anticipated because we were hoping the models cover all the reasonable use-cases. So, if you want to use libnetconf2, you will have to use your own fork and expose whatever functions you need in API.

Libnetconf2 has similar interfaces, focusing on those associated with nc_accept_callhome and those associated with nc_server_ch_add_client
