how to get Netconf RPC request equivalent to "Show version" output

UmeshPal — Thu, 12 Oct 2023 06:36:07 GMT

Extreme SLX9540 Switch/Router

I am not able to get below response over netconf. Not able to find the xpath or rpc request which can get me below information over netconf.

SLX_LAB_CB04# show version

UmeshPal,

Thanks for your question, can you try the following:

<nc:rpc xmlns:nc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" nc:message-id="9"> <show-firmware-version xmlns="urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-firmware-ext"></show-firmware-version> </nc:rpc> ]]>]]>

I get the following reply in my SLX:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <rpc-reply xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" nc:message-id="9" xmlns:nc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0"><show-firmware-version xmlns='urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-firmware-ext'> <os-name>SLX-OS Operating System Software</os-name> <os-version>20.5.1</os-version> <copy-right-info>Copyright (c) 1995-2023 Extreme Networks, Inc. </copy-right-info> <build-time>Wed Apr 26 15:44:41 2023 </build-time> <install-time>Thu Aug 3 15:06:09 2023 </install-time> <kernel-version>4.14.67</kernel-version> <firmware-full-version>20.5.1</firmware-full-version> <system-uptime>69days 22hrs 10mins 39secs </system-uptime> <control-processor-vendor> GenuineIntel</control-processor-vendor> <control-processor-chipset> Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU C3758 @ 2.20GHz</control-processor-chipset> <control-processor-cpucores> 8 cores</control-processor-cpucores> <control-processor-microcode> 0x2e</control-processor-microcode> <control-processor-memory>15631 MB</control-processor-memory> <node-info> <slot-no>0</slot-no> <node-instance-no>1</node-instance-no> <node-type>type-mm</node-type> <firmware-version-info> <application-name>SLX-OS</application-name> <primary-version>20.5.1</primary-version> <secondary-version>20.5.1</secondary-version> </firmware-version-info> </node-info> </show-firmware-version> </rpc-reply>]]>]]>

Thanks a lot ! This command works well with SLX9540 node 20.4.2 version. though the mentioned RPC is no in SLX-OS NETCONF Operations Guide, 20.4.2.

Can i also get to know the RPC for fetching type of Device ? ie. ExtremeRouting SLX 9740 or SLX 9640 or ExtremeSwitching SLX 9540.
