net-config-get-active

Oc77 — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 20:51:19 GMT

hi,

I'm trying to extract my active network config from my FAS (7Dot) using NMSDK 5.4 with net-config-get-active.

It works well except for vlan. vlanid stay at 0 for every vlan. Do i miss something ?

Thanks for your help.

What version of ONTAP are you running?

Did a quick test and I get a VLAN section beside the interfaces section that lists the VLANs.

import sys
sys.path.append("netapp-manageability-sdk/lib/python/NetApp")

from NaServer import *

s = NaServer("10.78.7.100", 0 , 30)

s.set_server_type("FILER")
s.set_transport_type("HTTP")
s.set_port(80)
s.set_style("PASSWORD")
s.set_admin_user("ontapi","Netapp01")

result = s.invoke_elem(NaElement("net-config-get-active"))

print result.sprintf()

Result :

<results status="passed">
	<net-config-info>
		<ifgrps></ifgrps>
		<vlans>
			<vlan-info>
				<interface-name>e0a-100</interface-name>
				<parent-interface>e0a</parent-interface>
				<gvrp-enabled>false</gvrp-enabled>
				<vlanid>100</vlanid>
			</vlan-info>
		</vlans>
		<interfaces>

I did some tests and was able to reproduce your problem.

It looks like the API parses the interface name up to the first "-" character and determines the VLAN with what follows.

If you have a "-" character in your interface name it doesn't work.

Here with "test-ifgrp" :

<results status="passed">
	<net-config-info>
		<ifgrps>
			<ifgrp-info>
				<interface-name>test-ifgrp</interface-name>
				<ifgrp-type>single</ifgrp-type>
				<ifgrp-policy>single</ifgrp-policy>
				<links>
					<link>e0c</link>
					<link>e0d</link>
				</links>
			</ifgrp-info>
		</ifgrps>
		<vlans>
			<vlan-info>
				<interface-name>test-ifgrp-100</interface-name>
				<parent-interface>test-ifgrp</parent-interface>
				<gvrp-enabled>false</gvrp-enabled>
				<vlanid>0</vlanid>
			</vlan-info>
		</vlans>
		<interfaces>
[...]
			<interface-config-info>
				<interface-name>test-ifgrp</interface-name>
				<ipspace-name>default-ipspace</ipspace-name>

			</interface-config-info>
		</interfaces>
		<routes>

[...]		</routes>

Thanks you very much ! it's sad that i can't change ifgrp name in production.

I have no luck with this net api. I found a bug in net-config-get-persistent which do not seem to support FC-IV card...
