Cisco Nexus Mac address table utilisation

Question

Hi all

I've been searching for a way for Solarwinds NPM to report on mac address utilisation for our Nexus 7k switches. In particular I'd like a graph showing something like the used column produced when you run ' show hardware capacity forwarding', and the ability to set alerts on this.

Any ideas?

Thanks very much

James

Pretty sure Cisco uses the CISCO-SWITCH-HARDWARE-CAPACITY-MIB for those stats.  Check this link and see if the info you're looking for is available.  If so, use a UnDP to get the stats and present it in the web console. http://www.oidview.com/mibs/9/CISCO-SWITCH-HARDWARE-CAPACITY-MIB.html
