Get IP WAN IP address for a VMX-M

[Adrian4]

Hello,

I am trying to get the WAN IP address for a VMX unit but the usual device status enpoint doesn't return it. I have also tried the uplink status endpoint suggested in another thread but that doesn't return it either 😞

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Have you checked the API documentation?

yea, but it doesn't actually return the example body fields when you make a call. 

example return data

{
"interfaces": {
"wan1": {
"enabled": false,
"vlanTagging": { "enabled": false },
"svis": {
"ipv4": {
"assignmentMode": "dynamic"
}
},
"pppoe": { "enabled": false }
},
"wan2": {
"enabled": false,
"vlanTagging": { "enabled": false },
"svis": {
"ipv4": {
"assignmentMode": "dynamic"
}
},
"pppoe": { "enabled": false }
}
}
}

Have you tried...

https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/#!get-organization-devices-uplinks-addresses-by-device

You can filter on network ID to limit responses.

I tried to run an example from the API dashboard and no matter what syntax I use, it tells me the network ID "must be an array".

Try changing the name of the parameter from networkIds to networkIds[]

brilliant! thanks very much - this returns the address in a "public address" field 😄
