This plugin consumes Cisco model-driven telemetry (MDT) data from Cisco IOS XR, IOS XE and NX-OS platforms via TCP or GRPC. GRPC-based transport can utilize TLS for authentication and encryption. Telemetry data is expected to be GPB-KV (self-describing-gpb) encoded.
The GRPC dialout transport is supported on various IOS XR (64-bit) 6.1.x and later, IOS XE 16.10 and later, as well as NX-OS 7.x and later platforms. The TCP dialout transport is supported on IOS XR (32-bit and 64-bit) 6.1.x and later.

This plugin is a service input. Normal plugins gather metrics determined by the interval setting. Service plugins start a service to listens and waits for metrics or events to occur. Service plugins have two key differences from normal plugins:
- The global or plugin specific
interval
setting may not apply - The CLI options of
--test
,--test-wait
, and--once
may not produce output for this plugin
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc. See the CONFIGURATION.md for more details.
# Cisco model-driven telemetry (MDT) input plugin for IOS XR, IOS XE and NX-OS platforms
[[inputs.cisco_telemetry_mdt]]
## Telemetry transport can be "tcp" or "grpc". TLS is only supported when
## using the grpc transport.
transport = "grpc"
## Address and port to host telemetry listener
service_address = ":57000"
## Grpc Maximum Message Size, default is 4MB, increase the size. This is
## stored as a uint32, and limited to 4294967295.
max_msg_size = 4000000
## Enable TLS; grpc transport only.
# tls_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
# tls_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
## Enable TLS client authentication and define allowed CA certificates; grpc
## transport only.
# tls_allowed_cacerts = ["/etc/telegraf/clientca.pem"]
## Define (for certain nested telemetry measurements with embedded tags) which fields are tags
# embedded_tags = ["Cisco-IOS-XR-qos-ma-oper:qos/interface-table/interface/input/service-policy-names/service-policy-instance/statistics/class-stats/class-name"]
## Include the delete field in every telemetry message.
# include_delete_field = false
## Specify custom name for incoming MDT source field.
# source_field_name = "mdt_source"
## Define aliases to map telemetry encoding paths to simple measurement names
[inputs.cisco_telemetry_mdt.aliases]
ifstats = "ietf-interfaces:interfaces-state/interface/statistics"
## Define Property Xformation, please refer README and https://pubhub.devnetcloud.com/media/dme-docs-9-3-3/docs/appendix/ for Model details.

# Global Property Xformation.

# prop4 = "string to int64"
# prop5 = "string to float64"
# auto-prop-xfrom = "auto-float-xfrom" #Xform any property which is string, and has float number to type float64
# Per Path property xformation, Name is telemetry configuration under sensor-group, path configuration "WORD Distinguished Name"
# Per Path configuration is better as it avoid property collision issue of types.
# dnpath = '{"Name": "show ip route summary","prop": [{"Key": "routes","Value": "string"}, {"Key": "best-paths","Value": "string"}]}'
# dnpath2 = '{"Name": "show processes cpu","prop": [{"Key": "kernel_percent","Value": "float"}, {"Key": "idle_percent","Value": "float"}, {"Key": "process","Value": "string"}, {"Key": "user_percent","Value": "float"}, {"Key": "onesec","Value": "float"}]}'
# dnpath3 = '{"Name": "show processes memory physical","prop": [{"Key": "processname","Value": "string"}]}'
## Additional GRPC connection settings.
[inputs.cisco_telemetry_mdt.grpc_enforcement_policy]
## GRPC permit keepalives without calls, set to true if your clients are
## sending pings without calls in-flight. This can sometimes happen on IOS-XE
## devices where the GRPC connection is left open but subscriptions have been
## removed, and adding subsequent subscriptions does not keep a stable session.
# permit_keepalive_without_calls = false
## GRPC minimum timeout between successive pings, decreasing this value may
## help if this plugin is closing connections with ENHANCE_YOUR_CALM (too_many_pings).
# keepalive_minimum_time = "5m"
Metrics are named by the encoding path that generated the data, or by the alias
if the inputs.cisco_telemetry_mdt.aliases
config section is defined.
Metric fields are dependent on the device type and path.
Tags included in all metrics:
- source
- path
- subscription
Additional tags (such as interface_name) may be included depending on the path.
