Issue with "no shutdown"

previousqna — Fri, 01 Mar 2019 11:47:53 GMT

Hi experts,

Just seeking out your advice on this. As you know, Cisco interfaces are “shutdown” by default. I’m using NSO for automating link provisioning, but I´m unable to do “no shutdown” via NSO xml template. I added this line on the template:

But that doesn’t send the “no shutdown” command. Funny thing is that if I do that via NSO NED interface, I am able to do that.

admin@ncs(config-if)# devices device GRATSTING config cisco-ios-xr:interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0/0

admin@ncs(config-if)# no shut

admin@ncs(config-if)# commit

Commit complete.

admin@ncs(config-if)#

And no the NED log I can see NSO it´s actually sending “no shutdown”.

Has anyone had this same issue? Im using NSO 4.3 and cisco-iosxr 5.0.2

Shall I TAC it?

Just checking are you sure the interfae in not shutdown in the template case? The diff will get rid of the command if the interface is already up.

Another suggestion , do

Commit dry-run | debug template

It might show for example if you are not reaching the shutdown line you mention.

I think this should be tags=”delete” instead.

Sorry,

It was like that

However I was trying “disable” to see if it made any difference. Still (with proper tag “delete”) it doens do “no shutdown”

Any advice, please?

My mistake guys. I was using a Juniper template for a Cisco device. The commands are quite similar. Mind the “Netconf” on this xml, Cisco doenst use Netconf:

And Cisco doens´t use Netconf. Proper command is:

Sorry for that

Sorry for the SPAM,

For sake of correctness, Cisco command:

This is normally handled by the NED. If you generated the template from ncs, manually test them in the CLI. If the expected command isn't reported in "commit dry-run", you should contact the NED team to investigate.

I'm using NSO 5.7.1 here..

Instead of using generated XML out of device config, use the below tag, it works for me.
