Subject: [rancid] Force10 inventory for pluggable media

I have several different Force10 switch models and they allow me to view pluggable media using the 'show inventory media' command. That command was introduced in FTOS firmware 7.5.1.0 (released August 2007).

I've added the following line to my f10rancid script after the 'show inventory' command:
{'show inventory media' => 'ShowInventory'},

Sample output from this addition on a Force10 S50 switch stack:
+ !Inventory: Slot Port Type Media Serial Number F10Qualified
+ !Inventory: 0 49 Media not present or accessible
+ !Inventory: 0 50 XFP 10GBASE-LR ABCDEFG Yes
+ !Inventory: 0 45 Media not present or accessible
+ !Inventory: 0 46 Media not present or accessible
+ !Inventory: 0 47 Media not present or accessible
+ !Inventory: 0 48 SFP 1000BASE-LX HIJKLMN Yes
+ !Inventory: 1 49 XFP 10GBASE-LR OPQRSTU Yes
+ !Inventory: 1 50 Media not present or accessible
+ !Inventory: 1 45 Media not present or accessible
+ !Inventory: 1 46 Media not present or accessible
+ !Inventory: 1 47 Media not present or accessible
+ !Inventory: 1 48 Media not present or accessible

Hope this helps anyone curious about what optics have been inserted / removed in their devices.
