Damien b23353bf15 fix(grafana): correct metric names in fabric-overview dashboard 
Changed from:
- gnmic_interfaces_interface_state_counters_* with target label

To:
- gnmic_interfaces_* with source label

Also added:
- Interfaces Monitored stat panel
- MLAG Peer-Link Traffic panel

These match the actual metrics generated by gNMIc.

Damien ca55e2ff59 fix(grafana): correct metric names in weathermap queries 
Changed from:
- gnmic_interfaces_interface_state_counters_out_octets
- gnmic_interfaces_interface_state_counters_in_octets
- target label

To:
- gnmic_interfaces_out_octets
- gnmic_interfaces_in_octets  
- source label

These match the actual metrics generated by gNMIc with the simplified
/interfaces/interface/state path and trim-prefixes processor.

Damien 6c08b9ecf7 fix(gnmic): remove skip-verify (mutually exclusive with insecure) 
The flags --insecure and --skip-verify are mutually exclusive in gNMIc.
Since we're using insecure connections (no TLS), skip-verify is not needed.
 2025-12-16 14:21:43 +00:00
Damien 5fdf374fa4 fix(gnmic): rewrite config with correct parameters and simplified paths 
- Remove invalid 'add-target: target' (must be overwrite|if-not-present|empty)
- Enable debug mode for troubleshooting
- Simplify interface paths to /interfaces/interface/state (Arista compatible)
- Simplify system paths to /system/state
- Remove complex BGP path that may not work on cEOS
- Add retry and timeout parameters for reliability
- Add expiration to prevent stale metrics
- Add skip-verify for insecure connections
- Increase sample intervals for stability

Damien 62efe9fc93 Apply critical fix: Add ip routing command to spine2 
This enables BGP and IP forwarding on spine switches. Without this command,
BGP sessions cannot be established and routing is disabled. This is essential
for the underlay fabric to function properly.

This enables BGP and IP forwarding on spine switches. Without this command,
BGP sessions cannot be established and routing is disabled. This is essential
