event_register_mat question

[r.crist]

Hello,

I'm writing an EEM script to detect when a MAC address is added to the MAC address-table and I have a question about how to get the added MAC address and the interface it was added on and set them as variables.  I've attached the script and output from "debug event manager detector mat". 

I can see the info being returned:

Oct  2 14:49:05: fh_fd_mat_event_match: intf=FastEthernet1/0/1, mac=0050.600c.153b, type=0

I just can't figure out how to get it, then set it.  See attached files for details.

Thanks!

Rich

The various ways I've tried to extract the MAC and intfc info:

array set arr_einfo [event_reqinfo]

set macAddr $arr_einfo(mac_address)
set intfc $arr_einfo(intf_name)

set macAddr $arr_einfo(mac)
set intfc $arr_einfo(intf)

set macAddr $mac_address
set intfc $intf_name

set macAddr $_mac_address
set intfc $_intf_name

set macAddr $_mac
set intfc $_intf

The proper solution would be:

set macAddr $arr_einfo(mac_address)

set intfc $arr_einfo(intf_name)

puts $macAddr

puts $intfc

The other attempts will cause the script to die with an error.

Hi Joseph,

How to use event mat in 3560? I cannot see the event being triggered.

Thanks.
