So what are you customers going to do with the information "I'm connected
to a switch named $foo, on a port named 3/17, and the switch's IP address
is $bar"?
While I value security, the urge to switch off CDP is something I've never
fully understood - it's quite useful (think "customer has a box with two
serial ports and has hooked up the wrong one to his T1") in troubleshooting.
There are IOS releases with CDP bugs, of course, and you don't want to
run these with CDP enabled.
