What is ciscoVdcSwitchId?

This read-only MacAddress object reports the MAC address of the physical device on which a given virtual device instance was created. In a multi-chassis environment, this lets an admin trace a specific VDC back to the exact physical switch hosting it. If a VDC's ciscoVdcSwitchId doesn't match the MAC address of the chassis the admin expects, it indicates that VDC actually lives on a different physical switch in the stack.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.774.1.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-VDC-MIB::ciscoVdcSwitchId

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.774.1.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CISCO-VDC-MIB::ciscoVdcSwitchId.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> ciscoVdcSwitchId.1
