B-Series with multiple ports

[cslayton]

I have a python script that I’m using for B-series switches to configure multiple ports at the same time.

#@METADATASTART
#@ScriptDescription "Change port from static to NAC".
#@DetailDescriptionStart
##############################################################################
#
#Purpose: "Change port from static to NAC".
#
# Version : 1.0
#
# This script deletes selected ports from all vlans, sets "display-string" and
# "description-string" to "NAC_Port".  Finally, the configuration is saved.
##############################################################################
#@DetailDescriptionEnd

#@MetaDataEnd
import re
import commands

def main():
    
    if "port" in emc_vars:
        ports = emc_vars["port"]
    else:
        print "Please select at least one PORT if you start the script"
        return 0
    
    cli_result = emc_cli.send("clear port vlan " + ports)  

main()

However, I get the following output:

deerl1sw006(su)->clear port vlan ge.1.7,ge.1.8
Invalid Port in [port-string]. 

The B-Series switch needs to use ; instead of , to separate interfaces.  Is there anyway to fix this?

I tried to change ports (string) to a list using this:

ports_list = ports.split()
    for x in ports_list:
        cli_result = emc_cli.send("clear port vlan " + x)  

I get the same error.
