Hi list,
The "ARP Table" on all ports is empty (f.e. /device/device=95/tab=port/port=13844/view=arp/), I'm wondering why... Shouldn't there be listed all MAC addresses in the MAC address table ("show mac address-table")? Or is this really just the MAC<->IP table? If yes, are MAC addresses tables saved in the Observium database to see which MAC address is on which switchport? Looking at the "ARP Table" from all Ports (f.e. /device/device=95/tab=ports/view=arp/) there are MAC adresses which belongs to an IP address.
All devices are Cisco Switches or Brocade Router.
Cheers, Tobias
arp table is different, if you want "show mac address-table" Cisco doesn't support q-bridge-mib, which is need to show you this kind information.

Hi,
Thanks for the answer...
The "Switchmap"-Project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/switchmap/) is able to pull out the MAC address table from Cisco switches. It would be really nice if Observium would be able to do it too, so I don't need to have that many tools =) I tried to see how Switchmap is doing it, but I did have some troubles understanding it =(
