-Description: NETCONF protocol library [docs]
+Description: library for IETF NETCONF protocol (documentation)
  NETCONF library in C intended for building NETCONF clients and servers. NETCONF
  is the NETwork CONFiguration protocol introduced by IETF.
  .
- libnetconf2 is a NETCONF library in C handling NETCONF authentication and all
- NETCONF RPC communication both server and client-side. Note that NETCONF
- datastore implementation is not a part of this library. The library supports
- both NETCONF 1.0 (RFC 4741) as well as NETCONF 1.1 (RFC 6241). The main
- features include:
- .
-  * NETCONF over SSH (RFC 4742, RFC 6242), using libssh.
-  * NETCONF over TLS (RFC 7589), using OpenSSL.
-  * DNSSEC SSH Key Fingerprints (RFC 4255)
-  * NETCONF over pre-established transport sessions (using this mechanism the
-    communication can be tunneled through sshd(8), for instance).
-  * NETCONF Call Home (RFC 8071).
-  * NETCONF Event Notifications (RFC 5277),
- .
