Hello,

I am trying to automat some processes for documentation with scripts. I am looking for a NBI query which gives back the model and Serial numbers of a Summit Stack. Can someone help me?

Kind regards

Hello Christoph,

unfortunately there is no official guide for Python Scripting with XMC. But you can find many official examples under Task -> Scripts and Workflows not only the VLAN scripts.

More examples can also be found here: https://github.com/extremenetworks

For your concrete problem here a small example (quick and dirty) how to query a switch (XOS only!) and then output the serial numbers.

import re


#Send CLI commands
def sendConfigCmds(cmds): 
    for cmd in cmds: 
        cli_results = emc_cli.send( cmd )
        if cli_results.isSuccess() is False:
            print 'CLI-ERROR: ' + cli_results.getError()
            return False

    return cli_results.getOutput()

#Use allways a main function in XMC
def main():
    commands = []
    commands.append("show version") 


    result = sendConfigCmds( commands )

    if result:
        result_lines = result.splitlines()


        for line in result_lines:
            match = re.search("Slot.*?:",line)
            if match:
                line_parts = line.split()
                if len(line_parts) > 2:
                    print("Serial: " + line_parts[3])
#Start program
main()

Here is what you will see with “show version”:

Slot-1 sw001 # show version
Slot-1 : 800601-00-18 8914N-46722 Rev 18 BootROM: 1.0.2.1 IMG: 22.7.1.2
Slot-2 : 800601-00-18 8912N-46755 Rev 18 BootROM: 1.0.2.1 IMG: 22.7.1.2

Here is the output:

Serial: 8914N-46722

Serial: 8912N-46755

Hope that helps.

Regards Stephan

Hello,

from the XMC point of view, a stack is just one device, no matter how many switches are attached to it. Therefore you won't find any information about stack members anywhere in the XMC (only if you create your own FlexViews and ask MIBs). Correspondingly also not in the NBI.

The only possibility, I see, is to ask the switches directly. You can simply create a script or a workflow that reads the information directly from the switches (stacks) via CLI.

If you need the data externally, you can send it by mail or store it on a file on a network share that is connected to the XMC.

Surely not as nice as query this externally with the NBI. But it works.

This is all you’ll be able to get from NBI.

Thanks again. But still only information over the primary node.

Christoph,

I don’t have Summit stack to test it, check withthis if you find something:

Hello Mig,

thank you for your answer but this query only gives back the Information for the primary node of the stack.

Kind regards
