Enabling OpenConfig Telemetry Support

It is assumed that your infrastructure is set up with a gNMI client. Its configuration is beyond the scope of this document.

SLX-OS provides a simple switch to enable OpenConfig Telemetry Support. By default, this feature is disabled and must be enabled.

  1. Navigate to the device's Configuration Terminal context.
    SLX#
    SLX# config terminal
    SLX (config)# 
                        
  2. Use the operational-state syncup enable <module> command to enable all the supported modules or a specific module.

    The operational-state syncup enable all command enables support for all the modules

    Use the specific module switch to enable OpenConfig Telemetry for that module.

    SLX (config)# operational-state syncup enable ?
    Possible completions:
        All         Enable oper db syncup for all modules
        Bgp         Enable oper db syncup for bgp
        Interface   Enable oper db syncup for interface
        Platform    Enable platform specific oper db syncup 
    
    SLX (config)#
                        

Example

The following example enables OpenConfig Telemetry Support for the BGP module.

SLX (config)# operational-state syncup enable bgp
SLX (config)#
