JSON Representation

ExtremeXOS and Switch Engine support JSON format to represent the data resource. The following information describes the JSON representation for the YANG elements:

• The YANG elements in the resource models are mapped to JSON elements for the proper serialization.
• A leaf element is mapped into a single key-value pair. The key and the value are separated by a colon.
• A container element is mapped into a JSON object. Thus, the equivalent representation of a container starts with a left curly bracket and ends with a right curly bracket. The elements within the container are separated a comma.
• A list element is mapped into a JSON array. Thus, the equivalent representation of the list starts with a left square bracket and ends with a right square bracket. The instances of the list element are separated by a comma.

The following is an example of JSON representation.
