Retrieve device configurations from Cisco NSO by identifying managed devices and extracting their full configurations from NSO's CDB via RESTCONF. This verifies synchronization status and supports configuration auditing across network environments.

Verifying NSO device synchronization status involves listing device groups, identifying NED IDs, and extracting platform inventory for individual devices. This validates whether device configurations match their operational state across different network environments.

Accessing NSO device inventory and state requires RESTCONF access and specific environment variables: NSO_ADDRESS, NSO_USERNAME, and NSO_PASSWORD. You also need permissions to read configurations and device state from the NSO server.

List NSO device groups and capabilities by querying the NSO server to retrieve group memberships and associated feature sets. This helps plan bulk updates, migrations, and inventory reconciliation across the managed network infrastructure.

Inspect device operational state and NED IDs through NSO orchestration by querying platform details and extracted inventory for individual devices. This supports pre-change validation and ensures correct Network Equipment Driver mappings for managed devices.
