gnmic-get:tldr:fd83f

The command gnmic is a CLI (Command Line Interface) tool used to interact with network devices using the gNMI (gRPC Network Management Interface) protocol. The specific command you provided is used to retrieve data from a network device.

Here's a breakdown of the command and its options:

• gnmic: This is the command itself, invoking the gnmic tool.
• -a ${ip:port}: This option specifies the address of the network device you want to connect to. It uses the format ${ip:port}, where ${ip} is the IP address and ${port} is the port number. You need to replace ${ip:port} with the actual IP address and port of the device you want to connect to.
• get: This specifies that you want to perform a "get" operation, which retrieves data from the network device.
• --path ${path}: This option specifies the data path or the specific data you want to retrieve from the device. It uses the format ${path}, where ${path} is the path to the desired data. You need to replace ${path} with the actual path of the data you want to retrieve.
• --encoding json_ietf: This option specifies the encoding format of the retrieved data. In this case, json_ietf indicates that the data should be returned in JSON format following the IETF standard.

Overall, the command is used to connect to a network device, retrieve specific data from it using the gNMI protocol, and receive the data in JSON format.
