[j-nsp] End host mapping tool

[Dale Shaw]

Hi all,

Is anyone aware of open source or COTS software that provides MAC
address to switch port to IP address (and vice versa) mapping and
discovery? aka end user / end station tracking.

There are lots of them out there ('netdisco' being a popular open
source choice) but I haven't stumbled across one yet that properly
understands Juniper (JUNOS) bridging MIB(s) supported on EX-series
such that the MAC/L2 to IP/L3 resolution works properly.

I've personally tried the cacti 'MacTrack' plugin, as well as the
relevant module within Statseeker -- neither work as intended. In the
latter case, there is a product enhancement request logged but I'm
looking for something in the short term.

What are you using in your environment to do this?

cheers,
Dale
