+# Intro
+This document contains a list of sysrepocfg commands that can be used to test currently
+implemented plugin functionality.
+It can also serve as a reference containing a list of currently implemented leafs in the model.
+
+It is assumed that the datastore has already been initialized. As all of the data is currently
+automatically populated by the plugin, no import of example data is needed.
+
+## ietf-routing
+First we can confirm that the datastore contains any data at all.

+The `ribs` container is populated from available Linux routing tables usually visible in `/etc/iproute2/rt_tables`.
+In this example, the IPv4 and IPv6 master and local Linux tables are available.
+
+To see actual routes inside the RIBs, we have to query the operational datastore:
