Ok - We configured the system to convert the : delimited MAC sent in the trap to "." delimited and do a lookup against all device to find the trap Target ... [ Why was IP or Name not included in the trap ? ] Now we see the trap for portDisconnected / Connected using a MAC that is NOT a ifPhysical Address in the Box ? The Mac sent does show up in the Dot1 Bridge table ? What is wrong this using the MAC that is sent in the DeviceGoesDown trap ?

Hi, Yes MX / MS One Call gets me this - {"mac":"00:18:0a:bb:bb:bb","serial":"Q2FN-Q2FN-Q2FN","networkId":"9999","model":"MX400","claimedAt":"152659", "publicIp":"17.0.0.9","name":"0000-005"} The Other returns this {"name":"0000-005","serial":"Q2FN-Q2FN-Q2FN","mac":"00:18:0a:bb:bb:bb","publicIp":"1 7.0.0.9","networkId":"9999","status":"online","usingCellularFailover":false,"wan1Ip":"1.9.2.1","wan2Ip":null}, I parse both files to get what I need, but I still need the *Real* Address used to manage the device.

The vendor supplied a patch for CA Spectrum - to support casting the type to something usable and correct. We had to patch the servers to support a trap with bad /miss-typed data. ( I can only cringe thinking about when the trap format gets corrected and Breaks what we have working. )

To add insult to injury, we discovered that the MAC address sent in the trap is declared as type Octet String, but it’s actually sent as a : (Colen) delimited Text string, not Dot (.) delimited as a Octet string would be ! We are working to “cast” it as a type we can use in our comparison when searching for device by MAC ( insert annoyed Smily here...) Note to Engineering: Traps need some work ;) Thanks, Don

Hi, One significant issue we have with the traps is the content, ( or lack there of) every trap needs to have a target ! Most have MAC which is not helpful when trying to associate the Alarm to a CI in the CMDB against which you are trying to assert that Alarm, the trap must supply Hostname / IP Address to be useful. thanks, Don

This call was better, but I still need to make a second call to get device type Z3 Etc... We are also trying to determine which devices are Really in Production Vs. have been staged then shut off until True deployment. The status is useful, but I am thinking that is as of N minutes... Eg. it’s up now but for how long. Is is there any way to know a device is Production other than online and Passing traffic ? thanks, Don

Um.... So I am using these two calls: api/v0/organizations/666/inventory api/v0/organizations/666/deviceStatuses And was imagining I would get the same number of Records back for each ? All Devices are part of the inventory for the Org, no ? There must be some filtering applied to one call that is not applied to the other! Could you tell us what it is please ? Thanks, Don

Continuing to Shop for a call that gets what we’re looking for: this look promising - curl -L -H 'X-Cisco-Meraki-API-Key: <key>' -X GET -H 'Content-Type: application/json' 'https://api.meraki.com/api/v0/networks/[networkId]/devices'

Hello, As stated in one of my other posts we are trying to get data out of the Meraki Dashboard to feed into other systems eg: CMDB and initialy thought the inventory call - /api/v0/organizations/648916/inventory - "mac": "00:18:0a:0b:80c:0d", "serial": "QQQQ-UUUU-1111", "networkId": "A_123456789", "model": "MX100", "claimedAt": "1496173973.76468", "publicIp": "10.12.18.5" Would provide the same of more than what was on the Organization inventory Page ( but per Network ) but: - no name - IP is NAT IP not Device IP - Network ID not name ( not a big deal ) - No Country/Region It would make sense that if there is a concensus that "We need to see X in the GUI" we will want the same data available via an API call ? Thanks, Don PS: The trap content needs some massaging as well :)

VAfter investigating this Further - the IP Address returned by the API query is NOT the device IP, but the NAT overload address ? so the API call is all but Useless ~ ( for our needs )

Hi, We have a workaround in place now !' But having a "Standard" trap there the Header contains the IP of the source would be the norm. Or having a varbind that containst the source IP or Hostname would also be "Normal" for Management consoles that Proxy traps on behalf of the Device. Don

Hello, We are trying to get Inventory information out of the Dash board to feed into other systems CMDB etc... the Organization Inventory screen in the Dashoard would give us everything we need Except IP address. The API call - /api/v0/organizations/9999/inventory gives us what we need per Network Except Name ? So we have to loop through and make hundreds of call ( thousands later ) to get that last piece of information for each device. Could we please add the name to the Inventory call ? ( Or is there one other call we can make that would get us all the data we need per device ) IP / MAC / NAme / Network / Serial / Model / Claimed / Country-region / Network Name / Network ID ? / Thanks, Don

We are trying to use the traps send from the Dashbord to creat tickets for issues and the trap send by the Dashboard contain No IP or Hostname target information only the MAC address , Network Name / customer/Site / State / issue data. MAC is not the normal lookup value so were trying to build a workaround. I understand the devices are DHCP so IP *might* not be a valid target if its constantly changing. - but other customers I have talked to are using DHCP Reservation to have consistent IP Addresses used. We need something other than MAC in the traps to identify the target ! Don

Hello, Once you get the traps to the other platform you will likely run into the issue we are having - the trap contain No IP or Hostname target information only the MAC address , Network Name / customer/Site / State / issue data.

I understand the devices are DHCP so IP *might* not be a valid target if its constantly changing. - but other customers I have talked to are using DHCP Reservation to have consistent IP Addresses used.
