I have a Cisco 6509 switch that I'm monitoring with SNMP from a CentOS5 machine. SNMP polls are the only access I have to this device, we are not allowed to log on via telnet.
How can I find out which port on the switch a particular server is connected to? I was hoping that this is somehow possible using the mac address and the data gathered from snmpwalk/snmpget requests but I'm not having much luck. How would you tackle this problem?
Uncomment the Linkd service in service-configuration.xml. Then, at least if the connected device is also monitored the 'View Node Link Detailed Info' link on the node screen will show the connected device.
Oops - I was looking at an adjacent message and thought this was for the OpenNMS mail list. The advice still stands - all :-) you have to do is install opennms first (http://www.opennms.org). They have a yum repository that includes a suitable jvm so it isn't that hard to install on Centos.
