Cisco GNMI Telemetry is an input plugin that consumes telemetry data similar to the GNMI specification. This GRPC-based protocol can utilize TLS for authentication and encryption.
This plugin has been developed to support GNMI telemetry as produced by Cisco IOS XR (64-bit) version 6.5.1 and later.

## Address and port of the GNMI GRPC server
addresses = ["10.49.234.114:57777"]
## define credentials
username = "cisco"
password = "cisco"
## GNMI encoding requested (one of: "proto", "json", "json_ietf")
# encoding = "proto"
## redial in case of failures after
redial = "10s"
## enable client-side TLS and define CA to authenticate the device
# enable_tls = true
# tls_ca = "/etc/telegraf/ca.pem"
# insecure_skip_verify = true
## define client-side TLS certificate & key to authenticate to the device
# tls_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
# tls_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
## GNMI subscription prefix (optional, can usually be left empty)
## See: https://github.com/openconfig/reference/blob/master/rpc/gnmi/gnmi-specification.md#222-paths
# origin = ""
# prefix = ""
# target = ""
## Define additional aliases to map telemetry encoding paths to simple measurement names
# [inputs.cisco_telemetry_gnmi.aliases]
# ifcounters = "openconfig:/interfaces/interface/state/counters"
[[inputs.cisco_telemetry_gnmi.subscription]]
## Name of the measurement that will be emitted
name = "ifcounters"
## Origin and path of the subscription
## See: https://github.com/openconfig/reference/blob/master/rpc/gnmi/gnmi-specification.md#222-paths
##
## origin usually refers to a (YANG) data model implemented by the device
## and path to a specific substructe inside it that should be subscribed to (similar to an XPath)
## YANG models can be found e.g. here: https://github.com/YangModels/yang/tree/master/vendor/cisco/xr
origin = "openconfig-interfaces"
path = "/interfaces/interface/state/counters"
# Subscription mode (one of: "target_defined", "sample", "on_change") and interval
subscription_mode = "sample"
sample_interval = "10s"
## Suppress redundant transmissions when measured values are unchanged
# suppress_redundant = false
## If suppression is enabled, send updates at least every X seconds anyway
# heartbeat_interval = "60s"
