Slot and Line Card Mapping

[prashanth]

Hi There,

  I wish to know if there is a way to check the Security Gateway's slot and line card mapping.

>show assets all output displays the installed line cards, but don't have the slot they have been plugged into.

Thank You

Please let us know if you find a solution so I can add the info to this tool.

@Danny  Thank you for sharing the tool.
I saw the output depicts the line card model and the type. I also need the slot the line card is connected to.

Does the script provide that information by any chance?

Thank You

The line cards are listed in the slots they are in, as in 'Line Card 1' is in slot 1. 

Line card 1 model: CPAC-4-10F-B
Line card 1 type: 4 ports 10GbE SFP+ Rev 2.0
Line card 2 model: CPAC-8-1C-B
Line card 2 type: 8 ports 1GbE RJ45 Rev 1.0
Line card 3 model: CPAC-2-10F-B
Line card 3 type: 2 ports 1/10GbE SFP+ Rev 2.0
Line card 4 model: CPAC-4-10F-B
Line card 4 type: 4 ports 10GbE SFP+ Rev 2.0
Line card 5 model: CPAC-2-40F
Line card 5 type: 2 ports 40GbE QSFP+

If the line card is correctly installed to the appliance, system will recognize the line card with specific number of ports.

For example eth4-05 means, the line card is inserted into slot 4. Port number 5. Where exactly within the appliance the slot 4 is located, can be seen within Check Point Appliances Documentation, specifically in Getting Started Guide (section Appliance Hardware, subsection "Front Panel").

Example of 19000 and 29000 appliances: :

In the Gaia OS on the appliance, these interface names are assigned:

In 19200:

• The bottom row of slots (from left to right):

  eth1-0X, eth2-0X, eth3-0X, and eth4-0X.

In 29100 / 29200:

• The top row of slots (from left to right):

  eth5-0X, eth6-0X, and eth7-0X.

• The bottom row of slots (from left to right):

  eth1-0X, eth2-0X, eth3-0X, and eth4-0X.
