Containerlab

The purpose of this deployment is to collect gNMI data and write it to a Kafka broker.

Multiple 3rd Party systems (acting as a Kafka consumers) can then read the data from the Kafka broker for further processing.

This deployment example includes a single gnmic instance and a single Kafka output

Deployment files:

The deployed SR Linux nodes are discovered using Docker API and are loaded as gNMI targets. Edit the subscriptions section if needed.

Deploy it with:

git clone https://github.com/openconfig/gnmic.git
cd gnmic/examples/deployments/1.single-instance/2.kafka-output/containerlab
sudo clab deploy -t kafka.clab.yaml
