Correlate interface names to the right node in Network Node Group

It happens that QFabric log shows the interface name with the FPC prefix. This could be very tricky while troubleshooting. 

For instance, you can get a log line like the next one:

root@qfabric> show log messages | last 100000 | match SNMP_TRAP_LINK_DOWN
Apr 10 16:25:05 qfabric NW-NG-0 mib2d[8296]: SNMP_TRAP_LINK_DOWN: ifIndex 1091568306, ifAdminStatus up(1), ifOperStatus down(2), ifName ge-5/0/18

I think the best way to find out the FPC number of each QFX3500 node is the combination of two commands as it follows. First, log in to Network Node Group using request component login.

root@qfabric> request component login NW-NG-0

At this point, issue virtual chassis status:

From the output abow, it shows FPC of each QFX3500 node device and the next step is to find out which serial number belongs to which node. This job can be solved showing the fabric administration inventory:

In conclusion, for our example ge-5/0/18 matches node 9 port 18.
