+Summary:
+        This test suite consists of generic NETCONF protocol testing within ONOS
+        using OF-Config to translate NETCONF requests for OVSDB.
+        The following is an overview of how the NETCONF protocol is tested
+        Steps:
+            - Start NETCONF App in all currently running nodes
+            - Start OF-Config server on device to be configured
+            - Create configuration file
+            - Upload the configuration file to the device to be configured
+            - Verify that the device was configured successfully
+
+Required:
+        Make sure that OF-Config, https://github.com/openvswitch/of-config, is
+        installed on the device that is to be configured, the test assumes this
+        device is the machine running TestON.
+        Ensure that <cfgName> and <cfgPass> in the params file are the username
+        and password required to ssh into the desired machine and account that
+        of-config is to be run on.
+        The netconfConfig.json file contains the configuration that was
+        generated by the test.  The test also relies on the existence of this
+        file and will missbehave if it is removed entirely.  The contents of the
+        file are overwritten everytime the test suite runs through Test Case 200
+
+TODO:
+Extend configuration to allow for specification of
+    - Vendor name
+    - Hardware version
+    - Software version
+    - Serial Number
