- B
/dataservice/template/device/config
- C
/dataservice/device/control/connections
- D
/dataservice/statistics/network/health
- E

Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, D
Explanation
Cisco SD-WAN vManage REST APIs provide a variety of endpoints for managing the network. To retrieve device health information, the '/dataservice/device/health' endpoint is the primary choice. The '/dataservice/statistics/network/health' endpoint can also provide network-level health insights, which may include device health data. Understanding the specific use cases of each API endpoint is crucial for effective automation.
- A. Correct.
Correct: The '/dataservice/device/health' endpoint is specifically designed for retrieving health-related metrics for devices in the Cisco SD-WAN environment.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect: The '/dataservice/template/device/config' endpoint is used to fetch device configuration details, not health metrics.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect: The '/dataservice/device/control/connections' endpoint provides information about control plane connections, not device health.
- D. Correct.
Correct: The '/dataservice/statistics/network/health' endpoint provides overall network health metrics, which can include device health insights.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: The '/dataservice/alarms/active' endpoint retrieves active alarm information and is not related to device or network health metrics.
