Displaying the Ports in a VLAN
Dell Networking OS identifies VLAN interfaces using an interface index number that is displayed in the
output of the show interface vlan command.

To display the ports in a VLAN, send an snmpget request for the object dot1qStaticEgressPorts using the
interface index as the instance number, as shown for an S-Series.

The table that the Dell Networking system sends in response to the snmpget request is a table that
contains hexadecimal (hex) pairs, each pair representing a group of eight ports.
Seven hex pairs represent a stack unit. Seven pairs accommodate the greatest number of ports
available — 64 ports on the MXL switch, the last stack unit is assigned eight pairs, the eight pair is
unused.
