gnmic-get: Query the device state at multiple paths with a common prefix.
$ gnmic -a ${ip:port} get --prefix ${prefix} --path ${path1} --path ${path2}
try on your machine

The command you provided seems to be using the gnmic tool to perform a GET operation on a network device. Here's a breakdown of the command and its components:

  1. gnmic is the command-line interface (CLI) tool you are using.
  2. -a ${ip:port} specifies the address and port of the network device. The ${ip:port} is a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the actual IP address and port number.
  3. get indicates that you want to retrieve data from the network device.
  4. --prefix ${prefix} specifies the prefix for the paths you are going to query. The ${prefix} is another placeholder that should be replaced with an appropriate value.
  5. --path ${path1} and --path ${path2} represent the specific data paths you want to retrieve from the network device. ${path1} and ${path2} are placeholders that need to be replaced with valid paths relevant to your network device.

In summary, this command is using the gnmic tool to connect to a network device, retrieve specific data paths, and provide them with the given IP address, port, prefix, and paths as arguments.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
