Dump iLO NIC state

If not created already, create an instance of Rest or Redfish Object using the RestObject or RedfishObject class respectively. The class constructor takes iLO hostname/ ip address, iLO login username and password as arguments. The class also initializes a login session, gets systems resources and message registries.

Rest Object creation:

REST_OBJ = RestObject(iLO_host, login_account, login_password)

Redfish Object creation:

REDFISH_OBJ = RedfishObject(iLO_host, login_account, login_password)

Example 13: Dump iLO NIC states

The method ex13_dump_ilo_nic takes an instance of rest object ( or redfish object if using Redfish API ) as argument.

def ex13_dump_ilo_nic(restobj)

Find and get the system resource for manager.

instances = restobj.search_for_type("Manager.")

Send a HTTP GET request to the manager URI(s).

rsp = restobj.rest_get(instance["href"])

Send another GET request using the ethernet interface URI(s) from the respose body.

response = restobj.rest_get(rsp.dict["links"]["EthernetNICs"]["href"])

Check the response body for NIC status states and print the states.

for nic in response.dict["Items"]:
if nic["Status"]["State"] == "Enabled":
    sys.stdout.write("\t" + nic["Name"] + "\n")

    if "MacAddress" not in nic:
        sys.stderr.write("\tNo MacAddress information available (no"
               " 'MacAddress' property in NIC resource)\n")
    else:
        sys.stdout.write("\tMAC: " + str(nic["MacAddress"]) + "\n")

    sys.stdout.write("\tSpeed: " + str(nic["SpeedMbps"]) + "\n")
    sys.stdout.write("\tAutosense:  " + \

    sys.stdout.write("\tFull Duplex:  " + str(nic["FullDuplex"]) \
                                                            + "\n")
    if "FQDN" not in nic:
        sys.stderr.write("\tNo FQDN information available\n")
    else:
        sys.stdout.write("\tFQDN:  " + str(nic["FQDN"]) + "\n")
    for addr in nic["IPv4Addresses"]:
        sys.stdout.write("\tIPv4 Address:  " + addr["Address"]
               + " from " + addr["AddressOrigin"] + "\n")
    if "IPv6Addresses" not in nic:
        sys.stderr.write("\tIPv6Addresses information not "\
                                                    "available\n")
    else:
        for addr in nic["IPv6Addresses"]:
            sys.stdout.write("\tIPv6 Address:  " + addr["Address"]
                   + " from " + addr["AddressOrigin"] + "\n")
