View XML structure of CLI commands

To use the RESTCONF API to configure and monitor an OS10 switch, create an HTTPS request with data parameters in JSON format. The JSON data parameters correspond to the same parameters in the XML structure of an OS10 command.

To display the parameter values in the XML code of an OS10 command as reference, use the debug cli netconf command in EXEC mode. In CONFIGURATION mode, use the do debug cli netconf command.

This command enables a CLI-to-XML display. At the prompt, enter the OS10 command of the XML request and the reply you need. To exit the CLI-to-XML display, use the no debug cli netconf command.

Locate the XML parameters values for the same JSON data arguments. For example, to configure VLAN 20 on an OS10 switch, enter the RESTCONF endpoint and JSON contents in the curl command. Note how the JSON type and name parameters are displayed in the XML structure of the interface vlan command.
  • RESTCONF endpoint: /restconf/data/interfaces
  • JSON data content:
    {
	"interface": [{
		"type": "iana-if-type:l2vlan",
		"enabled": true,
		“description”: “vlan20”,
		"name": "vlan20"
	}]
}
  • curl command:
curl -X POST –u admin:admin –k "https://10.11.86.113/restconf/data/interfaces" 
-H "accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" 
-d '{ "interface": [{ "type": "iana-if-type:l2vlan", "enabled": true, 
“description”:“vlan20”,  "name":"vlan20"}]}'
To display values for the type and name parameters in the curl command, display the XML structure of the interface vlan 20 configuration command: 
OS10(config)# do debug cli netconf
OS10(config)# interface vlan 10
