Thanks for code indeed !
From what I see, is that for an MLT the card will say 0 and the port will give the MltID, but then you only know the MLT where the address is found.

l elaborate on the matter.
MLT's consist de-facto of 2 or more ports.
What I'm actually am trying to do is to determine on which EXACT PHYSICAL port a MAC address exists that's part of an MLT.

Reason,... when you know the EXACT physical port, you can easily search on that port for it's neighbor via the Nortel topology info by searching for a specific port in the topology table and that should work for MLT's to a stack, split MLT etc,...

Anyone ideas on that ?

I’ve posted some basic Perl code to my website that should help those that were interested.

Here’s the specific code;

When the new example code is available, could a link be posted here for further reference please ?
I'll try and convert it to embedded perl in PHP code.
(See my previous post)

Thanks in advance.

That comment was me and I started that comment in an off topic post (http://michaelfmcnamara.blogspot.com/2007/12/ping-snoop.html#links). The link above contains some basic embedded perl in PHP code I wrote based on Michael’s formulae. Referencing it for completeness.
I’m looking forward to the new code ! TIA

I am looking forward to this code. I have tried to do this in the past but the code would get confused on the SMLTs and just recursively travel down each one in a circle.
