Answer choices
Why each option matters

NETCONF requires enabling the service, SSH configuration, user creation, and verification.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Configure SSH, then create a local user, then enable NETCONF, then verify
Why this is correct
This order is correct because NETCONF relies on SSH for secure transport. SSH must be configured first, then a user account is created for authentication, NETCONF is enabled, and finally verification ensures the service is operational.
- ✗
Enable NETCONF, then configure SSH, then create a local user, then verify
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because NETCONF over SSH requires SSH to be configured before enabling the NETCONF service. Enabling NETCONF without SSH will result in failure.
- ✗
Create a local user, then enable NETCONF, then configure SSH, then verify
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because SSH must be configured before NETCONF is enabled, as NETCONF uses SSH for transport. User creation can be done earlier, but the order of SSH and NETCONF is wrong.
- ✗
Configure SSH, then create a local user, then verify, then enable NETCONF
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because NETCONF must be enabled before verification. Verification commands like 'show netconf-yang sessions' will fail if NETCONF has not been enabled.
