ProCurve Manager find function

[Stefan Wusowski]

Hello,
the PCM has a function find where it show the neighbours of a selected switch and witch is the connection Port. Does anybody know how to run it against all switches (maybe via PCM Policy, CLI or something else) to get a List of the Switch-Switch connection.

Thanks in advanced

Hello,

I will suggest that you use the show LLDP command as CLI, and then collect the result.

-- Show a list of connected devices
show lldp info remote-device

-- Show a detailed list of connected devices
show lldp info remote-device all

-- If you have some Cisco which uses CDP
show cdp neighbors
show cdp neighbors detail

For the best result use latest firmware. HP don't anymore transmit CDP - only reciving. (Due to licenses issues with Cisco and CDPV2)

HP Mirrors data between the CDP and LLDP mibs.

Hope this will help you.
