Will the NETCONF server be disabled by default ? since we already have REST, and Telemetry running.

Will the NETCONF server be disabled by default ? since we already have REST, and Telemetry running.
Yes. NETCONF will be disabled by default. We are considering making it configurable (e.g., via config_db), once we decide if it should be a separate container or not.
NETCONF server will be running in separate docker container?
Currently, no. It's running as a process in mgmt-framework container. But we can consider separating it to a separate docker container if that's your recommendation and fits better with the SONiC architecture.
How do ensure that the NetConf running database and Redis database are synchronized? for example CLI ? Is it possible for NetConf to fetch directly from the Redis database and deprecate its own running database
In the context of NETCONF capabilities, does this HLD will cover extended capabilities as well?
Noting as future reference. (Comment from Kwan Kim)
In today’s (14th Sep) meeting, one of questions from NTT is about NETCONF Get-config operation.
NETCONF Get-config can be translated to REST Get with the “content” query parameter, i.e. content=config. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8040#section-4.8.1
We have opened PRs for query parameter support. https://github.com/sonic-net/sonic-mgmt-common/pull/102 https://github.com/sonic-net/sonic-mgmt-framework/pull/119
@ntt-omw @nakano-omw @ebiken-ntt Hi ， I have read the document you submitted and I fully agree with your design for integrating netconf into Sonic. I wanted to inquire if you have already completed the development work to support netconf in Sonic. Recently, I have been considering enabling netconf functionality in my Sonic switch. Although your documentation is very detailed, I am not sure where to start. Could you provide me with some advice or suggest some source code for me to study?
