restconf: what is the correct api call for configuring a BGP peer


restconf: what is the correct api call for configuring a BGP peer



I am trying to bring up a BGP session (linkstate family, if it matters).
Following this guide https://github.com/opendaylight/docs/blob/master/docs/user-guide/bgpcep-guide/bgp/bgp-user-guide-linkstate-family.rst



When I am making a request using
as URL /restconf/config/openconfig-network-instance:network-instances/network-instance/global-bgp/openconfig-network-instance:protocols
and as body


/restconf/config/openconfig-network-instance:network-instances/network-instance/global-bgp/openconfig-network-instance:protocols


<protocol xmlns="http://openconfig.net/yang/network-instance">
<name>nl-ams02c-ispbgp01</name>
<identifier xmlns:x="http://openconfig.net/yang/policy-types">x:BGP</identifier>
<bgp xmlns="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:bgp:openconfig-extensions">
<global>
<config>
<router-id>10.20.14.1</router-id>
<as>xxx</as>
</config>
<afi-safis>
<afi-safi>
<afi-safi-name>LINKSTATE</afi-safi-name>
</afi-safi>
</afi-safis>
</global>
</bgp>
</protocol>



It seems that the family was added to the BGP speaker, I am checking this with


In [5]: url = "/restconf/operational/bgp-rib:bgp-rib"

In [6]: requests.get('http://{}:{}{}'.format(odl['api']['ipaddr'],odl['api']['port'],url), auth=auth).json()
Out[6]:
{'bgp-rib': {'rib': [{'id': 'nl-ams02c-ispbgp01',
'loc-rib': {'tables': [{'afi': 'bgp-linkstate:linkstate-address-family',
'safi': 'bgp-linkstate:linkstate-subsequent-address-family',
'bgp-linkstate:linkstate-routes': {},
'attributes': {'uptodate': True}}, ...



Question #1
I do not know though how to check and where should I expect to see the local IP address (10.20.14.1 in the above example) that is used for this BGP session. What would be the HTTP GET request for that ?



Next, when I am trying to configure the BGP peer using
as URL /restconf/config/openconfig-network-instance:network-instances/network-instance/global-bgp/openconfig-network-instance:protocols/protocol/openconfig-policy-types:BGP/nl-ams02c-ispbgp01/bgp/neighbors
and as body


/restconf/config/openconfig-network-instance:network-instances/network-instance/global-bgp/openconfig-network-instance:protocols/protocol/openconfig-policy-types:BGP/nl-ams02c-ispbgp01/bgp/neighbors


<neighbor xmlns="urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:bgp:openconfig-extensions">
<neighbor-address>10.20.14.0</neighbor-address>
<afi-safis>
<afi-safi>
<afi-safi-name>LINKSTATE</afi-safi-name>
</afi-safi>
</afi-safis>
</neighbor>



I get the following error:


{'errors': {'error': [{'error-type': 'protocol',
'error-tag': 'malformed-message',
'error-message': 'Error parsing input: Child "protocol" was not found in parent schema node "(urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:bgp:openconfig-extensions?revision=2017-12-07)neighbors"',
'error-info': 'Child "protocol" was not found in parent schema node "(urn:opendaylight:params:xml:ns:yang:bgp:openconfig-extensions?revision=2017-12-07)neighbors"'}]}}



Question #2
Could you please help me and advise on the correct HTTP call to configure a BGP peer ?



PS. I am running OpenDaylight Oxygen-SR2



UPDATE: I found out that RESTCONF API Explorer is of help, still browsing through it..

What's the difference between DDS and SOME/IP?

What's the difference between DDS and SOME/IP? SOME/IP is an automotive middleware solution that can be used for control messages. DDS is also an automotive middleware for communication. I want to know what's the difference between them? and, why and when should i choose one of them? 1 Answer 1 SOME/IP and DDS both allow distributed applications to communicate using both the publish/subscribe pattern and the service request/reply pattern (RPC). But there are also significant differences. SOME/IP was specifically designed for the automotive industry. SOME/IP is a collection of specifications developed as part of AUTOSAR that describe its serialization protocol , service discovery , and a transformer for integration with Classic AUTOSAR.
