Hi all - question - I love the mapping feature for Cisco / CDP devices. Below is what the Map / Diagram looks like for one of the Cisco switches I have discovered...I only care about routers/switches/APs showing up there. Question is: is it possible to exclude certain CDP neighbors from showing up on the Map by default?

Hi Kenny,
This is (currently) not possible.

Hi Tom - thanks for responding. OK - I figured there'd be a nerd knob/button in the gui if it was. Has anyone got a hack working? I was looking at map.php and looked like if I tweak the mysql statements might be able to make it work? Thanks, Kenny

Hi Kenny,
I've put this on my todo as it's an easily fixed feature request I believe and if things went perfectly well it'd have been in Observium since last friday. But alas... I'll keep you posted :)

Committed in r4861.
$config['bad_xdp'] matches parts of device names, $config['bad_xfp_regexp'] does the same but allows you to specify regular expressions. Both arrays (like bad_if/bad_if_regexp).
Devices matching these will not be added as a link, nor will they be tried to autodiscover.

Awesome thanks Tom. I'd be glad to help test this (or donate time for whatever) just let me know. Kenny

OK I just did svn update and did this
root@egv-istnettools:/opt/observium# svn update U includes/discovery/discovery-protocols.inc.php U includes/discovery/functions.inc.php U includes/defaults.inc.php A update/116.sql Updated to revision 4861.
root@egv-istnettools:/opt/observium# ./discovery.php -h none Observium v0.14.1.4861 Discovery
-- Updating database/file schema 115 -> 116 ... (db) done. -- Done Current Revision : 4861 MySQL: Cell[2/0s] Row[16/0s] Rows[2/0s] Column[0/0s] Update[1/0s] Insert[0/0s] Delete[0/0s]
Added this to config.php:
$config['bad_cdp'] = array("SEP"); $config['bad_xdp'] = array("SEP");
Restarted apache2 (not sure if I needed to do that one)...
Map is still showing Cisco IP Phones. Is that line incorrect? Anything else I have to do? Pointers on troubleshooting? Thanks, Kenny

Hi Kenny,
BTW, should be xdp, the cdp variable you set is not used. xDP as in x for C, F and LL, so there's only one variable for all discovery protocols.
And indeed, it is used upon discovery (which is where the maps are built).
Glad you got it work!
