Hi Experts,
I have two quick questions regarding APIC-EM discovery.
Thanks,
Yossi

There is no way to modify the queries. Is there a reason you want to modify them?
If you want to find out the commands being executed, you could discover the device via telnet and snoop that. You need to specifically allow telnet discovery.

Thanks for the prompt reply, Adam.
I'd like to first understand what apic samples and if there is any room for tweaking it in the case of a customer request (w/o impacting apic functionality).
Telnet modeling should like a good idea (i should have thought about it...)
Thanks much!

Thanks to Adam's good advice, I've found the queries:
show interface
show cef interface brief
show ip route
show cdp neighbors detail
show lldp neighbors
show ip device tracking all
show arp
show mac address-tables
show interfaces switchport
show lldp neighbor detail
show cef state
show flow monitor
show standby
show vrf detail
show ip vrf brief
show running-config | sec bgp
show running-config
show ospf
show ospf interface
show isis
show parameter-map type subscriber attribute-to-service name BUILTIN_DEVICE_TO_TEMPLATE
show fex
From your experience -
• Are customers ok for running these queries (every 25 min – default configuration) on their production network? (e.g. “show ip route” on a largely populated device…)
• No one ever questions Cisco what queries apic is running? Or expressed any concern?

you can change the timing of the polling if you like.
generally customers do not really care. They are interested in the outcome vs how it gets done.
They might be interested at the POC stage, out of curiosity.
