Display portnames for Brocade FC Switches

Feature Requests
1

Currently all ports on my Brocade switches are called “FC Port 0/0”, “FC Port 0/1” etc. in LibreNMS. It would be nice if LibreNMS could instead use the name configured by the portname command which can be read via SNMP OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.1.6.2.1.36

I second this!

Maybe somebody could give us a hint what ought to be changed in order to get this?

Thank you!

Wondering if someone managed to make this work. i second this request too as it doesn’t really make sense to have to manually maintain the port names on librenms.

Thank you!
