Hi all,
I'm trying to obtain some information from a bunch of N9K switches via NX-API and Python. I've been able to successfully pull the required info via JSON-RPC format for all the commands I've sent to the remote box (simple "show..." commands). However, one command in particular is returning incorrect data in that it doesn't match at all what it seen via CLI on the device. See below:
From NX-OS CLI:
BL01# show ip dhcp relay address
Interface Relay Address VRF Name
------------- ------------- --------
Vlan2898 10.6.6.15
Vlan2898 10.7.7.15
Vlan2899 10.6.6.15
Vlan2899 10.7.7.15
From NX-API on that same device:
I've also checked this against multiple devices (all N9K-C9372PX running NX-OS standalone version 7.0(3)I2(2b)) and get that same result for the "relay_address" field (1.0.0.0). The same result is seen whether it's json, json-rpc or xml message formats (I prefer working with json in my python scripts). I suspect this is a software defect or the functionality for this specific command has not been added yet in NX-API. The following commands all work for comparison without issue and return the data I need:
cmds = [ "show bgp l2vpn evpn summary",
"show ip pim rp" ,
"show ip ospf",
"show nve vrf",
"show ip interface loopback 1",
"show ip interface eth1/49",
"show bgp l2vpn evpn neighbors",
"show cdp nei" ,
"show ip dhcp relay address" <----- NOT WORKING AS PER ABOVE ]
