Overview

Model-driven telemetry (MDT) eliminates the inefficiencies of polling by streaming the data directly from the internal data structures at periodic intervals. Using this technique, the router can export statistics at many times the rate of SNMP. Cisco® IOS XR has supported telemetry since XR 6.0.0. Key innovations in XR 6.1.1 include the ability to stream data using YANG models and to use gRPC as a transport mechanism (in addition to raw TCP).
