Configuration hierarchy

From a system perspective, a configuration leaf node is different from a simple configuration non-leaf node. A configuration leaf node takes the form <node value>, as in this example:

protocol-version v2

A non-leaf node always has an enclosing pair of braces {}, which may be empty, as in this example:

loopback lo {
}

...or not empty, as in this example:

ssh {
	port 22
	protocol-version v2
}
