Genie parser issue

eneskayahan — Fri, 08 Dec 2023 15:00:58 GMT

Hello

i want to parse transceiver information from switches via genie but i can't get structured data except "show interfaces transceiver" command and it only works for 9300 model not for likes of 3650 or 2960 series.

Commands like;

show interfaces transceiver detail
show interfaces {interface} transceiver detail

Also doesn't work for any type of switches. Outputs would be regular cli responses not structured data.

https://pubhub.devnetcloud.com/media/genie-feature-browser/docs/#/parsers

They are listed here but somehow they dont work.

Any help?

@eneskayahan digging into my old memory here, as i have not used those switches in while.

3650 Series use the "show int transceiver detail" cmd to get structured data about the transceivers connected to the specified interface and 2960 use the "show int description" to extract transceiver information from the interface descriptions. not that on the 2960 this approach doesn't provide as comprehensive data as the dedicated transceiver commands you have been using on the new devices.

Hope this helps.
