NETCONF: Call home support over ssh with password/certificate-based authentication

NETCONF Call Home enables the supported device to initiate a secure connection to a NETCONF client over SSH. You can use NETCONF Call Home when the NETCONF client cannot initiate a connection with the server. This can occur when a firewall or another security tool restricts management access to the server or implements Network Address Translation (NAT). NETCONF Call Home can also streamline the initial deployment of network devices by enabling a device to register with a management system when it is first powered on
