[c-nsp] 6509 noob question

Switch console can only be done from catos. You want to find and entry that
has a mac address within the cisco range. What does "sh cdp neighbor" give
you. I don't remember this working, but it has been a long time. Then "sh
cdp neighbor detail" for the address. Might get lucky.
