Re: Telemetry Subscription on MIB yangs not exporting any data

Deepak Ladha20 · ‎10-12-2021

Hi Team,

I am using a virtual router using Cisco ISO image (c8000v-universalk9.17.05.01a) deployed on a VM. The version information on the virtual router is as below -

#show version

Cisco IOS XE Software, Version 17.05.01a
Cisco IOS Software [Bengaluru], Virtual XE Software (X86_64_LINUX_IOSD-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 17.5.1a, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc3)

I created a few Telemetry subscriptions (on Cisco-IOS-XE-process-cpu-oper.yang, Cisco-IOS-XE-process-memory-oper.yang) following the steps from the Cisco document. It worked and telemetry data was received on the configured receiver.

Next, I created a subscription on MIB yang (CISCO-PROCESS-MIB.yang). I followed similar steps as before -

#enable
#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
(config)#telemetry ietf subscription 100
(config-mdt-subs)#stream yang-push
(config-mdt-subs)#filter xpath /CISCO-PROCESS-MIB:CISCO-PROCESS-MIB/cpmCPUTotalTable/cpmCPUTotalEntry/cpmCPUMemoryHCFree
(config-mdt-subs)#update-policy periodic 500
(config-mdt-subs)#encoding encode-kvgpb
(config-mdt-subs)#source-address xx.xx.xx.xx
(config-mdt-subs)#receiver ip address xx.xx.xx.xx 57000 protocol grpc-tcp
(config-mdt-subs)#end

The subscription is reported valid (show telemetry ietf subscription all). The receiver is reported to be connected (show telemetry ietf subs 100 receiver). But this time receiver is not receiving any data for this subscription. I tried other yang modules from the MIBS folder but again no data was received on the receiver.

Any idea/input on what is going wrong here?

Thanks,

Deepak Ladha

Hi All,

Further update - I found out that these YANG modules (under MIBS) have compilation status as FAILED. Is it the reason that the subscription created on these YANG modules is not working/exporting data to receivers?

@bigevilbeard

Can you please share your thoughts?

Thanks.

Where do you see this error, what commands or tooling is generating it ?

Hi Deepak, I checked this out in my lab and have it worked as expected. Make sure you have the CLI's enabled:

C9300-24UX# show run | s snmp
snmp-server community public RW
snmp-server manager
netconf-yang cisco-ia snmp-community-string public

You can validate the GET request with NETCONF with an RPC similar to below example

<rpc xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" message-id="101">
  <get>
    <filter>
      <CISCO-PROCESS-MIB xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:smiv2:CISCO-PROCESS-MIB">
        <cpmCPUTotalTable>
          <cpmCPUTotalEntry>
            <cpmCPUTotalIndex/>
            <cpmCPUTotal5sec/>
          </cpmCPUTotalEntry>
        </cpmCPUTotalTable>
      </CISCO-PROCESS-MIB>
    </filter>
  </get>
</rpc>

This is the show run and some show CLI's showing the connection is correctly established:

C9300-24UX#show run | s 121

I'm using the Telegraf receive so when I review the debug log from Telegraf I see the SNMP-CPU telemetry data coming in with subscription ID 121 as configured above:

CISCO-PROCESS-MIB:CISCO-PROCESS-MIB/cpmCPUTotalTable/cpmCPUTotalEntry,cpmCPUTotalIndex=19,host=jcohoe-ubuntu,path=CISCO-PROCESS-MIB:CISCO-PROCESS-MIB/cpmCPUTotalTable/cpmCPUTotalEntry,source=C9300-24UX,subscription=121 cpmCPUMemoryHCFree=4132136i 1635187426476000000

Let me know how it goes !
