ACI Terraform aci_interface_config and static ports configurations

[Dirk Feldhaus]

Hello,

I'd like to use Terraform to configure interfaces with the resource "aci_interface_config" and later configure a static port with "aci_bulk_epg_to_static_path".

However, for "aci_bulk_epg_to_static_path" I need the interface_dn for the specific ports and I'm not able to pull that from the state returned by "aci_interface_config".

When I check the object browser for the created "infraPortConfig" object the attribute "pcPortDn" seems to hold the appropriate value, but it is not part of the terraform state for this object.

Is it missing there (and can you add it) or am I missing something?

Hi @Dirk Feldhaus,
did you ever manage to find a way around this problem?

I am currently using a static assignment using the path, i.e. 

"topology/pod-1/protpaths-LEAF1-LEAF2/pathep-[IPG_$WHATEVERDEVICE-NODE-1-VPC]" for VPCs and 

"topology/pod-1/paths-LEAF-ID2/pathep-[eth1/1]" for physical ports.

This is really inconvenient but seems to be the only way?

Cheers,

Lennart

I've opened a bug report on github and got the reply that it is fixed. But I got distracted by other problems and never really followed up. This is the bug report in github: https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/terraform-provider-aci/issues/1080#issuecomment-1639113368. I hope that helps. Dirk
