- What I did
Add support for 'alias' interface naming mode to the
show ip interface
command.Also modify
InterfaceAliasConverter.name_to_alias()
andInterfaceAliasConverteralias_to_name.()
so that they no longer raise click.Abort(). Instead, if the interface name or alias to translate is not found in the PORT table of ConfigDB, we simply and gracefully return the untranslated parameter that was passed. A command likeshow ip interfaces
will present interfaces besides front-panel interfaces (eth0, docker0, lo, etc.), so this prevents the need to do yet another test of whether the port is a front-panel port or not.- How to verify it
- Previous command output (if the output of a command-line utility has changed)
- New command output (if the output of a command-line utility has changed)
