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.
Example of Viewing the VLAN Interface Index Number Using SNMP
Example of Viewing VLAN Ports Using SNMP (No Ports Assigned)
Example of Viewing VLAN Ports Using SNMP (Port Assigned)
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

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.
> snmpget -v2c -c mycommunity 10.11.131.185 .

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

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.
