Node credential storage encryption

Dear colleague,

I would like to understand the encryption mechanism to store node data (login password) stated in netconf-node-topology.yang file.

In below section from netconf-node-topology.yang, I see that if login-pw is selected, login credentials are encrypted.

case login-pw {

          description "login-password credentials, encrypted.";

          container login-password

{                       uses username-password;            }

}

If a node creation request with below content returns "200 OK" does this guarantee that credentials are encrypted in persistent configuration datastore? Is there a way to verify that they are stored encrypted? If so, which encryption mechanism is used?

request body:

{

  "node": {

             "node-id": "test",

              "host": "192.168.111.111",

              "port": 2022,

              "tcp-only": false,

              "login-pw:login-password" :

{                            "username": "admin",                            "password": "admin"                 }

      }

}

 

Thanks.
