[mrtg] Re: Extreme Summit 48si

[Strutt, Simon]

I've had a similar problem with Extreme Alpine switches, and I seem to
remember that the decription is not available via a standard MIB OID.  You
may want to do manual interrogation/walk using Getif
(http://www.wtcs.org/snmp4tpc/getif.htm) or a similar Unix tool to see if
you can find the port decription text.  Though I don't know how you'd map
the non-standard OID so MRTG used that OID for the description rather than
its normal, if you were to find it.

Subject: [mrtg] Extreme Summit 48si

We're trying to have the cfgmaker label our switch ports based on the
description we put on each port in the switch's config.  It works
perfectly
on our cisco switches, but we're trying to do this on our summit, and
it's
not working as expected.  I've tried cfgmaker --ifref=name,
ifdesc=descr,
ifdesc=alias, and several others, and no luck.  When doing an snmpwalk
-c
(cmtyname) -v1 (switchipaddress) | grep (description) It shows up
IF-MIB::ifAlias.16 = STRING: (description)
 
Thanks in advance!
