show vlan and sorting

Antonio_Prado — Fri, 12 Jun 2015 15:32:00 GMT

Hi,

could be possible to make EXOS sort VLANS by VID?

currently it sorts just by name and in case of hundreds vlans it's pretty annoying.

show vlan | sort VID
show vlan sort VID
thank you

Hi,

You could use any of the below:

show vlan
show vlan | include

Hope this helps.

hi,

doesn't help, actually.

I'm asking for sorting (not finding)

thank you

Hello Antonio

We do not do that in native XOS but I am sure we can do that via a script. Let me check to see if we don't already have one created.

I will let you know what I find out.

Thanks

If you have EXOS 15.6.1 or later, then you could use python scripting.
There doesn't seem to be a way to attach the script file so I've included it below with before and after console output.

hi dave,

that's useful.

generally speaking, a basic sorting task on vlans shouldn't require programming skills, though

thank you

Hey Antonio

Yes you are correct and we are working to make new advancements on how the VLANs are created and indexed. I believe 16.1 will provide more focus on VLAN ID numbers.

Scripting provides a way for us to manipulate the OS to provide benefit in a faster perspective versus waiting for a new version of code. It also provides a way for customer to re-write what they see on the screen. If for example you want to capture data from two different screens and show them on with one command then we can accomplish it with scripts.

The Python scripts also allow us to run them as an application on the switch so that as soon as the switch is booted the script is loaded into XOS.

I hope that helps explain the reason for scripting and how it can provide benefit between versions of code

Thanks
P
