Brocade SNMP help

[Phil Daws_2]

Is there a way to show what WWN (port) is attached to each physical port via SNMP?

I think there is a memory array of mappings but via SNMP you cannot see it.

I could get it by grabbing a telnet session and using 'switchshow' but that is a poor way of doing it.

Anybody know ?

I don't think that it is possible to do that directly, BUT, you can query the local name server via SNMP:

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.bcsi.commDev.fibrechannel.fcSwitch.sw.swNs.swNsLocalTable.swNsLocalEntry.swNsPortName.<1,2,3...>

will give you the entries. I'm not sure how to proceed from there.

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.bcsi.commDev.fibrechannel.fcSwitch.sw.swFCport.swFCPortTable.swFCPortEntry

will enable you to discover which ports are online and InSync, but I don't know how to map the name server entries to the online ports. I've done some testing locally, and the entries were always sorted according to the port number, but of course YMMW.
