SONiC config_db Utils

Commandline tool for generating a config_db.json file for SONiC.

Usage

Create a sonic-config.yaml file with config variables. Then run

sonic-confidb-utils generate

Check the template-values.yaml file to see examples for all accepted variables.

Supported version and limitations

sonic-configdb-utils was only tested with our own build of SONiC.

Limitations

When configuring LLDP hello_time, a simple config load is not enough. The lldp container needs to be restarted for the change to become effective, either with systemctl restart lldp or with config reload.
