Hi all,
i had an issue recently with a port on the switch but in the logs it tells me
Action ID 10784: param: interface ifindex: “117”
yet there seems to be no way to find the ifindex number tied to the ports on switch
thanks
Mat

Hi, it traces back to this snmp table:
snmptable -v 2c -c public 10.240.10.52 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2 | awk ‘{print $1" " $2}’
Depending on the switch software version the mapping may be different.
Table output is like this:
ifIndex ifDescr
1 lo
2 mgmt0
3 mgmt1
4 ib0
65 /SX/9
67 /SX/12
69 /SX/11
70 /SX/14
72 /SX/13
74 /SX/16
etc…
Whereas: /SX/number means the ib port 1/number
Usually though, any log entry referencing an interface index number has surrounding log messages with the same timestamp that reference the associated port number. For example:
Nov 20 02:03:28 sw123 cli[27777]: [cli.NOTICE]: user admin: Executing command: interface ethernet 1/1 clear counters
Nov 20 02:03:28 sw123 mgmtd[2024]: [mgmtd.NOTICE]: Action ID 614: requested by: user admin (System Administrator) via CLI
Nov 20 02:03:28 sw123 mgmtd[2024]: [mgmtd.NOTICE]: Action ID 614: descr: Clears the port counters
Nov 20 02:03:28 sw123 mgmtd[2024]: [mgmtd.NOTICE]: Action ID 614: status: completed with success
Nov 20 02:03:28 sw123 mgmtd[2024]: [mgmtd.NOTICE]: Action ID 615: param: interface ifindex: “114”
********Here ifindex 114 mayches port 1
Another example:
Jan 11 01:57:11 sn2700-2 ifd[4029]: TID 140295984342848: [ifd.NOTICE]: handling vlan oper state change, vlan: 4001, ifindex: 55001, state: up

*******Above shows that ifindex 55001 is P016 (port channel 16)
