Parsing table and adding additional variable

Question

Hi,

I’ve got a intent where I am parsing the output of “show isis interface” and the L1/L2 metric is is on column. I need to get the L1 and L2 metric into separate variables which I have done. I need to have logic to see if metric is < or > a value. The the new variables are set to string and I can’t change them, when I click on them only string shows up. All the other variables that are default from the table I can change.

Is there a secret to changing additional variables types that I am just missing?

This is on R12.1

Thanks for any help

By design, Additional Variables are stored as strings.
If you need to perform numeric operations (e.g., greater-than/less-than), convert them to integers first.

Where to convert: Either in Diagnosis (data converting step) or directly in a Formula column.
