Question: anyone know how to determine if a Passport 8k module is an E module or not by querying the MIBs?
In Device Manager if you edit a card you get a front and a back part number. The back part number (not the front card...which is what I expected) shows E-module in parenthesis if it's an E-module.
I looked at two cards in slots 3 & 4 of an 8600 - 8608SX and 8608SXE and browsed all the values for rc2kCardEntry. The card type (rc2kCardEntry 2) is the same for both. The front card part number (rc2kCardEntry 8) and the rear card part number (rc2kCardEntry 16) are different.
If you "get" the value for the OID associated with the rc2kCardBackPartNumber you get 209535A21 for SX and 209535A15 for SXE, but there's no cross reference that tells you that A15 is an "E", whereas A21 is not.
The CardFrontPartNumbers are different too, but I don't think E versus non-E is determined by that, and at any rate...it's the same situation - no cross reference.
Device Manager knows if it's an E module...so there must be a way to figure it out. Can anyone help?
