The "Show" Request And Response; Configuration Task List - Dell Force10 C150 Configuration Manual

The "Show" Request and Response

To generate an XML request that encapsulates a "show" command (to request a report), you use the
<action> tag instead of the <configuration> tag as the Operation type. The schema of a show request
allows only one <command>, as shown here for the
"<command>
command and options, just as in the standard CLI):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<request MajorVersion="1" MinorVersion="0">
<cli>
<action>
<command>
</action>
</cli>
</request>
The response from FTOS, if the command executes successfully, presents all of the content that you would
get in the equivalent CLI report. Note that the data are encapsulated in self-explanatory XML tags. The
following is an example of a
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<response MajorVersion="1" MinorVersion="0">
<action>
<linecard>
<slotId>3</slotId>
<status>online</status>
<nextBoot>online</nextBoot>
<reqType>E48TF3</reqType>
<numPorts>0</numPorts>
<swVer>6.5.1.1</swVer>
</linecard>
</action>
</response>
