NMX Services Registration

In order for NMX-M to receive network telemetry and control information, NMX-M needs to register with NMX-T and NMX-C.

This can be accomplished by sending a POST request to the nmx/v1/services API using the following format:

Example POST Request

{
  "Name": "Some-Name",
  "Description": "This is a description.",
  "ServiceType": "TELEMETRY",
  "ServiceConnectionInformation": {
    "Address": "1.1.1.1",
    "PortNumber": 8001
  }
}

Equivalent cURL Command: 

curl --request POST \
  --url https://NMX_M-IP/nmx/v1/services \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic cnctdXNlcjpOdmlkaWExMg==' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
  "Name": "Some Name",
  "Description": "Sample Description",
  "ServiceType": "CONTROLLER",
  "ServiceConnectionInformation": {
    "Address": "10.188.47.166",
    "PortNumber": 9370
  }
}'

Note: The Authorization header will use either rw-user or ro-user along with the corresponding password.

Checking the Status of Registered Services

To retrieve the status of all registered services, perform a GET request to the same API.

Example Response

[
  {
    "Status": "UP",
    "Description": "Description",
    "Address": "1.1.1.1",
    "UpSince": "2000-01-23T04:56:07.000+00:00",
    "Name": "Name",
    "ApplicationUUID": "046b6c7f-0b8a-43b9-b35d-6489e6daee91",
    "Version": "Version",
    "StatusInfo": "StatusInfo",
    "ServiceType": "TELEMETRY",
    "ID": "551137c2f9e1fac808a5f572",
    "ClusterDomainUUID": "046b6c7f-0b8a-43b9-b35d-6489e6daee91",
    "PortNumber": 8001,
    "RegisteredAt": "2000-01-23T04:56:07.000+00:00"
  }
]

Equivalent cURL  Command

curl --request GET \
  --url https://NMX-M-IP/nmx/v1/services \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic cnctdXNlcjpOdmlkaWExMg=='

Note: The Authorization header will use either rw-user or ro-user along with the corresponding password.

Filtering Services

You can filter the response to retrieve only Telemetry or Controller services. For example, the following command retrieves only Telemetry services:

curl --request GET \
  --url https://NMX-M-IP/nmx/v1/services \TELEMETRY&offset=0&limit=1' \
  --header 'Authorization: Basic cnctdXNlcjpOdmlkaWExMg=='
