5 years ago First of all, yes this is the appropriate place for questions like this. So no problem there.
To answer your main question, I do not think it is currently possible to do what you are wanting to do. If you look in the logs (ztp show log) after a switch requests a config, you will see a line like XXXX-XX-XX XX:XX:XX: cfact.merge_final_config: Merging with values: ... and then a JSON dump of all the values available to your template. Currently there are no SNMP query results in those data, but I see no reason to not have it in there. I am going to consider this a bug and queue it for repair. I may be able to turn out a fix for it in the next few days.
Apologies if I'm breaking rules by posting this question as it's not necessary an "issue".
From within a template, is it possible to reference the variable name that holds the SNMPOID value when querying the switch for serial number/model?
For example, I am using the following ztp set snmpoid command: ztp set snmpoid WS-C3750_MODEL_NAME 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.13.1001
This query correctly pulls the model name for the switch I am testing with, and matches it using my ztp set array command which then matches the correct template I have using the ztp set assocation id command.
What I would like to do, is reference the WS-C3750_MODEL_NAME variable from within my template - for example, using this variable as the hostname. Is this possible?
So far I have tried using the {{ WS-C3750_MODEL_NAME }} name in my template but it failed completely, and I have also tried using the keystore with a command such as ztp set keystore 3750 hostname WS-C3750_MODEL_NAME - but it didn't reference the snmpoid variable, rather just used the actual WS-C3750_MODEL_NAME name.
Thanks, and again - sorry if this is not the correct place for questions like this.
