Assigning a VLAN Alias Write a character string to the dot1qVlanStaticName object to assign a name to a VLAN. Example of Assigning a VLAN Alias using SNMP [Unix system output] > snmpset -v2c -c mycommunity 10.11.131.185 .1.3.6.1.2.1.17.7.1.4.3.1.1.1107787786 s "My VLAN" SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.17.7.1.4.3.1.1.1107787786 = STRING: "My VLAN" [Dell system output] Dell#show int vlan 10 Vlan 10 is down, line protocol is down Vlan alias name is: My VLAN Address is 00:01:e8:cc:cc:ce, Current address is 00:01:e8:cc:cc:ce Interface index is 1107787786 Internet address is not set MTU 1554 bytes, IP MTU 1500 bytes LineSpeed auto Displaying the Ports in a VLAN Dell Networking OS identifies VLAN interfaces using an interface index number that is displayed in the output of the show interface vlan command. Examples of Viewing VLAN Ports Using SNMP The following example shows viewing the VLAN interface index number using SNMP. Dell(conf)#do show interface vlan id 10 % Error: No such interface name. R5(conf)#do show interface vlan 10 Vlan 10 is down, line protocol is down Address is 00:01:e8:cc:cc:ce, Current address is 00:01:e8:cc:cc:ce Interface index is 1107787786 Internet address is not set MTU 1554 bytes, IP MTU 1500 bytes LineSpeed auto ARP type: ARPA, ARP Timeout 04:00:00 To display the ports in a VLAN, send an snmpget request for the object dot1qStaticEgressPorts using the interface index as the instance number, as shown for an S-Series. The following example shows viewing VLAN ports using SNMP with no ports assigned. > snmpget -v2c -c mycommunity 10.11.131.185 .1.3.6.1.2.1.17.7.1.4.3.1.2.1107787786 SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.17.7.1.4.3.1.2.1107787786 = Hex-STRING: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 The table that the Dell Networking system sends in response to the snmpget request is a table that contains hexadecimal (hex) pairs, each pair representing a group of eight ports. • Seven hex pairs represent a stack unit. Seven pairs accommodate the greatest number of ports available - 64 ports on the device. The last stack unit begins on the 66th bit. The first hex pair, 00 in the previous example, represents ports 1 to 7 in Stack Unit 0. The next pair to the right represents ports 8 to 15. To resolve the hex pair into a representation of the individual ports, convert the hex pair to binary. Consider the first hex pair 00, which resolves to 0000 0000 in binary: 806 Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
