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 in the following example.

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 on an Aggregator, 56
ports. The last stack unit is assigned eight pairs, the eight pair is unused.
The rst hex pair, 00 in the previous example, represents ports 1 to 7 in Stack Unit 0. The next pair to the right represents ports 8 to
15. To resolve the hex pair into a representation of the individual ports, convert the hex pair to binary. Consider the rst hex pair 00,
which resolves to 0000 0000 in binary:
• Each position in the 8-character string is for one port, starting with Port 1 at the left end of the string, and ending with Port 8 at
the right end. A 0 indicates that the port is not a member of the VLAN; a 1 indicates VLAN membership.
All hex pairs are 00, indicating that no ports are assigned to VLAN 10. In the following example, Port 0/2 is added to VLAN 10 as
untagged; the rst hex pair changes from 00 to 04.

The value 40 is in the rst set of 7 hex pairs, indicating that these ports are in Stack Unit 0. The hex value 40 is 0100 0000 in binary.
As described, the left-most position in the string represents Port 1. The next position from the left represents Port 2 and has a value
of 1, indicating that Port 0/2 is in VLAN 10. The remaining positions are 0, so those ports are not in the VLAN.
