Support for FDR switches #10

Open sterni1971 opened 2 years ago

sterni1971 commented 2 years ago

Hello!

we have several MSX6025F-1SF in use and MSX6036F-1SF (also SwitchX but managed) Is there a chance that they will be supported in the future?

best regards

Hi @sterni1971 !

Unfortunately, I don't believe that Switch-X switches provide the same level of access, and that the registers that are used to pull information from the switches are exposed the same way. I initially explored the possibility to get information from SX6025/SX6036 switches when I started developing this tool, but never found a way to get meaningful information.

I don't have any of those switches around for testing anymore, so I'm afraid that future support for FDR switches is very unlikely. :(
