+
+    As alternative to Ansible, Chef or REST, a VNF or PNF MAY support YANG models
+    allowing execution of standard controller LCM operations including HealthCheck.
+    Note: To support vendor YANG models for LCM operations, the controller is responsible
+    for performing VNF/PNF specific translation of north-bound API requests into one or more
+    south-bound NETCONF requests.
