In the article, only show as follow (because easy to show how to work):

Protocol: UDP; Port: 5234

Encoding: KV-GPB

For more detailed information, you can reference my colleague’s GitHub, which includes more examples, e.g GRPC.

AlexFengCisco / Telemetry_Receiver

GRPC Update Info:

If use GRPC not TCP/UDP, that will have standard function, you will not need to write “DECODE_FN_MAP…”, function will auto generate, direct to use. Simple list steps:

1. Get GRPC protobuf (e.g “mdt_grpc_dialout”) from cisco / bigmuddy-network-telemetry-proto
2. Install/use compile tools, suggest install python virtual env, you can reference 在MacOS中部署Python虚拟开发环境

(telemetry-protocol) [root@telemetry telemetry-protocol]# python -V
Python 3.6.8
(telemetry-protocol) [root@telemetry telemetry-protocol]# easy_install pip
(telemetry-protocol) [root@telemetry telemetry-protocol]# pip install grpcio
(telemetry-protocol) [root@telemetry telemetry-protocol]# pip install protobuf
(telemetry-protocol) [root@telemetry telemetry-protocol]# pip install grpcio_tools
(telemetry-protocol) [root@telemetry telemetry-protocol]# python -m grpc_tools.protoc -I. --python_out=. --grpc_python_out=. cisco_grpc_dialout.proto
(telemetry-protocol) [root@telemetry telemetry-protocol]# ls -l|grep cisco

Follow all file if you need grpc protocol:

[root@telemetry grpc-dailout]# ls -l
total 36

VNF

VNF（Virtual Network Function）：是NFV（Network Function Virtualization）的一个组件，通过VNF，可以屏蔽硬件需求；可以通过VMs使用VNFs部署各种功能

VNFD（VNF Descriptor）：描述VNF，在其中VDU（Virtual Decice Unit）将会被定义，等同于单个的VM；简单的VNFD会包含单个VDU，复杂的VNFD会包含多个VDUs；VDU包含vCPU，memory，storage，image，flavor，NIC ID mapping和NED type等；NVFD在ETSI SOL001（YAML）和SOL006（Yang）标准中定义

VNF-info：真实网络连接信息，租户信息，凭据，启动和恢复时间，day0配置，ESC设备名称等

下面是上面几种信息的关系：

Not update any NSO article to my blog, I will put more NSO info to here, wish that will help more guys. The article will include more hands-on experiences, help beginner fast connect xr devices with nso by cli or netconf ned. For netcong NED, build by Pioneer at former, that need to manual exclude the Yang file that no support. In the article, will build netconf ned by native tool of NSO 5.2.0.

Platform Info
