Hi Amitay,
I came up with two methods of getting the parent's IP address from the
port name
but neither are very pretty. Both require some parsing.
Example using port name XYZ-S8.usc.edu_7143
Note that port names are the name of the parent device with an underbar
followed by a port number. (_7143)
***Using CLI:
Prompt> <$SPECROOT>/vnmsh/connect
Prompt> <$SPECROOT>/vnmsh/show models mname=XYZ-S8.usc.edu_7143 | grep _
0x4e5fa7 XYZ-S8.usc.edu_7143 0x220011 Gen_IF_Port
Prompt> <$SPECROOT>/vnmsh/show attributes attr=0x1027f mh=0x4e5fa7 | grep _
0x1027f Legacy_Network_Address 172.16.0.10
{The two greps just eliminate the title lines, leaving just the useful
information lines.)
You need to extract the first 8 characters of the output of the "show models"
command (0x4e5fa7) to stick
in as the model handle of the second command (show attributes).
***Using operating system command:
Start with the port name: XYZ-S8.usc.edu_7143
Chop off the _ and everything after it.
issue one of several relevant OS commands:
host XYZ-s8.usc.edu
XYZ-S8.usc.edu has address 172.16.0.10
ypmatch xyz-s8.usc.edu hosts
172.16.0.10 xyz-s8.usc.edu xyz-s8
nslookup xyz-s8.usc.edu
Server: xyz-s8.usc.edu
Address: 172.16.0.10
Different operating systems use different variants.
The hard thing here is writing a script that does the parsing of the commands
then extracting
the relevant things you need.
Enjoy!

*Subject:* [spectrum] Getting the parent IP address
Hi all members,
I'm facing an issue regarding interfaces.
Sometimes I get an alarm from an interface itself – this alarm has NO IP
address since its on the interface.
I would like to get the parent address (device) in my notifier.
How can I get it done?
Once I used a tool called parent_find which I don’t know how I got it
and it starts to make problem with my SS version so I need to replace
this solution.
Best Regards, Amitay.**
