Query: any API to terminate the particular client's netconf session with particular user from application

[sumnimavn8]

Hi @michalvasko,

From our South bound application connected to netopeer server, we need to terminate particular client's netconf session,
any API available to kill the session for particular user.

Regards,
Sumnima

Yes, not surprisingly the /ietf-netconf:kill-session RPC.

@michalvasko Can this be done from the subscribed application instead of netconf client application to terminate the session.

[michalvasko]

You cannot terminate NETCONF sessions by sysrepo clients. They would have to create a NETCONF session first.

[sumnimavn8]

Is it possible for the subscribed application to terminate netconf session between Netopeer2-server and Netconf client?

[michalvasko]

Like I said, it is not possible and your graph is not accurate, subscribed application is not really connected to netopeer2-server, which can be achieved only by a NETCONF session. Whatever communication is occurring is secured by sysrepo. But, nothing prevents the application from locally connecting to the server to execute kill-session.
