cURL options

Disable URL globbing

By default cURL uses URL globbing. The globbing uses the reserved symbols [] and {} that normally cannot be part of a legal URL. If the URLs contain these symbols, disable URL globbing from cURL using the -g option.

Ignore the warning about the certificates

Ignore the warning about the certificates with the -k option.

Get CVP inventory

Get the device-id YANG leaf for all the devices from CVP inventory

curl -s -k -X GET --header "Authorization: Bearer `cat token.tok`" 'https://192.168.0.5:443/restconf/data/inventory/state/device/device-id?arista-origin=arista&arista-target='

Get OpenConfig data streamed by EOS devices and stored in CVP

Go to Devices > Inventory and replace the target in the commands below with the device ID found in the CVP device inventory.
The device ID is the device SN.
