NAME

       netconf-subsystem - thin client to access netconfd server

SYNOPSIS

          netconf-subsystem

DESCRIPTION

       netconf-subsystem  is  a  thin-client  application that is called by the OpenSSH server to
       access the netconfd server, when the 'netconf' subsystem is requested.

USAGE

       The location of this program needs to be configured in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file.  The
       following configuration needs to be present:

         Port 22
         Port 830
         Subsystem netconf /usr/sbin/netconf-subsystem

       The  actual  filespec  in  the  last line will depend on the location that this program is
       installed.  The default value is shown in the example above.

OPTIONS

       --ncxserver-sockname=port@filespec
              Specifies the corresponding pairs of SSH ports and UNIX socket names.  This  option
              allows multiple netconfd instances to run on the same host.

              /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
              ...
              Port 830
              Port 1830
              Port 2830
              Subsystem netconf "/usr/sbin/netconf-subsystem --ncxserver-sockname=830@/tmp/ncxserver.sock --ncxserver-sockname=1830@/tmp/ncxserver-right.sock --ncxserver-sockname=2830@/tmp/ncxserver-middle.sock"
              ...
