Just check if the first character of the line is a digit then split it and get the second and the third elements.

Thanks,

but how can i capture Port: 1, Port:2, Port:3 etc. i mean port numbers
changes done.. but not printing output

if you look at the line with the data you want you will see that the first digit corresponds to the port number. Just get it.

Alright, this is not the case.

Try this:

data = iter(output)

for line in data:
    if "Port:" in line:
        # get this line
        next(data) # scip the headers
        next(data) # scipt the --------
        # get the port number and the mac address. Prev. post

still stuck,

checking 4 character if line, if digit, spliting line and printing, however its not printing putout, what is going wrong.

If the file is strictly formatted as in the example you provided then there is no need to for "Port" in line. The first line contains "Port" then you skip the next two lines, the next contains the port_address pair then the for loop starts again and you repeat the same cycle.

In "Port: 1" you can get the number just by splitting the line - line.split(). The result will be the list ["Port:", "1"] whatever the number is. Then grab the second element.

Use string formatting.

print("{} {} {}".format(host, port, port_mac))
