Issues when trying to configure Huawei device

[Vaalen]

Getting the below error when trying to use "*.SendConfig()" towards a Huawei NE40 router.

Using this platform:
assets/platforms/huawei_vrp.yaml

Error:
Failed run command; error: errPrivilegeError: requested target privilege level 'configuration' is not a valid privilege level

Guessing the code is trying to get to "configuration" level, but it's not called that in Huawei devices.

the platform has no configuration privilege level, so dont use *Config methods.

[Vaalen]

So do you recommend to just use *.SendCommand() instead?
Because when I use that I get timeouts instead.

I can post my short sample code for this if you want?

[Vaalen]

I'm no expert coder, but in the NE40 platform the "system-view" level is comparable to the "configuration" level of Cisco IOS XR devices. So I'm guessing the issue would be resolved by matching "system-view" to be a configuration level somehow?

[carlmontanari]

then use sendconfig with the appropriate privilege level

Tried it out, it doesn't work with sendconfig + opoptions, but it works with sendcommand + opoptions.
