Example of Fetching MAC Addresses Learned on a Port-Channel Using SNMP
Use dot3aCurAggFdbTable to fetch the learned MAC address of a port-channel. The instance number is the decimal conversion of the
MAC address concatenated with the port-channel number.

Deriving Interface Indices
The Dell Networking OS assigns an interface index to each (congured and uncongured) physical or logical interface, and displays it in the
output of the show interface command.
The interface index is a binary number with bits that indicate the slot number, port number, interface type, and card type of the interface.
The system converts this binary index number to decimal, and displays it in the show command output.
Figure 135. Example of Assigning Interface Index Numbers
Starting from the least signicant bit (LSB) in the preceding gure:
• The rst 14 bits represent the card type of a physical interface or the interface number of a logical interface.
• The next 4 bits represent the interface type.
• The next 12 bits represent the slot and port numbers.
• The next bit is 0 for a physical interface and 1 for a logical interface.
• The last next is unused.
The Slot-Port Number value is derived from the slotId and portId parameters as follows: slotPortNum = ((slotId +1) *
IFM_IFINDEX_MAX_PORTS_PER_SLOT + portId).
The IFM_IFINDEX_MAX_PORTS_PER_SLOT value is 192 (10G). For backward compatibility, the
IFM_IFINDEX_MAX_PORTS_PER_SLOT value is 128 on other Dell Networking switches.
The slotId value is derived as follows: slotId = (slotPortNum / IFM_IFINDEX_MAX_PORTS_PER_SLOT) -1.
The portId value is derived as follows: portId = slotPortNum % IFM_IFINDEX_MAX_PORTS_PER_SLOT.
For example, the interface index 51528196 for the FortyGigE 0/4 port is 0000 0011 0001 0010 0100 0010 0000 0100 in binary format as
shown in the following gure.
