Datasets

YANG models are designed in a hierachial fashion represented in xpath notation. Analytics gives you the capability of producing datasets with the xpath representing the key and data associated to the xpath as the columns.

Dataset Format

xpath

module

nodetype

datatype

xpath/number/one

Cisco-model1

container

xpath/number/two

Cisco-model1

leaf

string

xpath/number/three

Cisco-model2

container

xpath/number/four

Cisco-model2

leaf

integer

etc…

The only required field is the xpath.

Choose a “Base YANG Set” and the YANG module(s) in the set that you want the dataset based on. There are 30+ possible data points associated to each xpath. Choose “Included columns” (default” All columns) or “Excluded columns” (default: none).

Actions:

  • Display dataset - A new browser window will show the results of the dataset.

  • Download dataset - A file will be downloaded to the browser which is in a format that can be imported into various other applications such as Microsoft Excel or Apple numbers.

More than one YANG module or a “Module category” can be selected to “Display dataset”, but, the resulting new browser window may be too large to realistically view. “Download dataset” is a better option in this case.
