how do you find the list of builtin variables?

[Chris Clifton]

  I'm working on a Cisco 4506 with EEM 3.20 and trying to create a script.  I have read the documentation and seen several examples of built in variables.  But when I try them, I get messages that the variable is not found.  It's prob. an issue that the variable is on a different type of hardware (router vs switch).   I also tried show event manager environment but nothing returns.   For example, I have seen "_nd_local_intf_name" used in several scripts but I have not been successful calling it.

Thanks,

Chris

For variables passed to events by their event detector, see the output of "show event manager detector DETECTOR detail".  For example, for _nd* variables, see the output of "show event manager detector neighbor-discovery detail".  Those variables are only available if that specific event triggers the applet.

For variables created by various actions, see my document at https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/102581/eem-built-action-variables .

Thanks Joe.  This is the information I was looking for.
