NETCONF in SR OS

NETCONF can be used on an SR OS router to perform router management operations
including:
NETCONF is not used for notifications; for example, log events, syslog, or SNMP
notifications (traps).
The equivalent of some admin commands are available via the NETCONF interface:
"bof", "debug", "tools", and other general CLI operational commands (e.g. "telnet" or "ping")
are not supported via NETCONF.
The SR OS NETCONF server advertises base capability 1.1 (in addition to 1.0).
