to access. For example get_fanout_device_details(0) selects the
first chassis. It just select the chassis but does not return
anything. The rest of the function then used to extract chassis
information like "get_chassis_ip()" will the return the ip address
of chassis 0 - the first chassis in the list.
Note:
Counting or indexing starts from 0. That is 0 = 1st cassis,
1 = 2nd chassis ...
