nucommand.NUCommand(bambou.nurest_object.NUMetaRESTObject,):

A Command represents an operation that needs to be executed on an entity (NSG, Gateway, …) which requires little processing by VSD, but may result in a long activity on the external entity. An example would be to trigger an action on VSD so that a Gateway download a new image. VSDs handling of the request is limited to generating a message to be sent to the device on which the download process is expected. The device then acts on the request and proceeds with the download… That may be a long process. The commands API is similar to the Jobs API with regards to triggering operations on objects.
