[cisco-voip] Finding switchports for a list of phones

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

Something to consider (not saying it's better) is to use the alternate TFTP configuration item in the phones. Rather than changing your networks now and having to change them each time a new agent is onboard or moves or whatever, if you configure each phone with an alternate TFTP server that points to the new cluster, they will join the new cluster upon phone boot up. 

This also avoids any issues with non-agents plugging in their phones to agent ports and not getting their phone to boot up.

We are in the process of upgrading from CUCM 4.1(3) to 6.1(2), and while we are doing that, we are also splitting our single cluster into two to segregate traffic for our contact center per recommendation of Cisco and our UCCE implementation partner (also moving from ICM 6.0 - 7.2 and IPQM 3.5(4) - IP-IVR 5.0). 

Unfortunately, our contact center and non-contact center users are mixed among our closet access switches (16 closets). 

We have a list of 300-400 MAC addresses of contact center phones (those registered with the ICM JTAPI user), and need to search each closet stack to correlate those MACs with their associated switchport so we can change the VLANs for those ports to point to our new cluster. 

Can anyone suggest any slick ways of getting this done? Anyone have any scripting they would be willing to share? 

Thanks very much & have a great weekend!
