Existing Device SDK Support

For up-to-date information on what is supported, please check the Collector and CVP release notes.

Initially there are two single-purpose device types, each using just one provider. The first is an OpenConfig device, which initiates a gRPC gNMI connection with a target device that supports OpenConfig and receives OpenConfig-modeled device data via gNMI updates. The second is an SNMP device, which performs SNMP polling on a target device that supports SNMP, converts the SNMP responses to the OpenConfig model using the SNMP-OpenConfig Translator, and emits those via gNMI updates. Initially the SNMP provider will support ENTITY-MIB, SNMPv2-MIB, LLDP-MIB/LLDP-V2-MIB, and IF-MIB.

CloudVision accepts any updates that are valid according to the OpenConfig data models, but initially it will limit its processing to a subset of that data, including the system, interface, and lldp OpenConfig models.
