An example of NETCONF infrastructure usage is getting and setting controllers on a device. These operations are defined in an ONOS Behaviour, in our case the NetconfControllerConfig.java, that implements ControllerConfig general behaviour. To do in the Behaviour you are creating the operations on the devices, you need the NetconfController, which you can obtainthorugh obtain through the DriverHandler. The NetconfController instance now gives you access to all the device or a single device. Once you have the device you are interested in based upon the deviceId you provide you can get the NetconfSession object to comunicate with the device and do operations on the physical devicedevices, like getting the configuration in in case of the get controllers methods or setting a pre-built new one for the setControllers. XmlConfigParser.java offers a method to extract the wanted information from an XML configuration received from the device and another method to produce the correct XML to set one or more controller on a specific device.
