Overview
Vantage JSON Diagnostics provides an HTTP transport method for retrieving diagnostic and error log information from
Cisco Explorer G6, G8, and G10 series gateways. As a service provider, you can aggregate this data in a variety of ways
to help analyze network performance and troubleshoot problems down to the level of an individual set-top.

to help analyze network performance and troubleshoot problems down to the level of an individual set-top.
Vantage diagnostic data is obtained from set-tops in one of two ways:
Pulling (polling) each set-top in turn from the headend
Pushing (transmitting) from each set-top to the headend
Both methods are initiated using Web Service APIs and pass data in JSON format. (Unformatted text is also an option.)
The operator controls many aspects of diagnostic collection by setting parameters in a configuration file.
