Please read the section above, if you've not yet done so.

Netdisco has four principal job types:

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
=over 4
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
=item discover
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Gather information about a Device, including interfaces, vlans, PoE status,
|
||||||
|
and chassis components (modules). Also learns about potential new Devices via
|
||||||
|
neighbor protocols and adds jobs for their discovery to the queue.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
=item macsuck
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Gather MAC to port mappings from known Devices reporting Layer 2 capability.
|
||||||
|
Wireless client information is also gathered from Devices supporting the
|
||||||
|
802.11 MIBs.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
=item arpnip
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Gather MAC to IP mappings from known Devices reporting layer 3 capability.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
=item nbtstat
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Poll a Node to obtain its NetBIOS name.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
=back
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The actions as named above will operate on one device only. Complimentary job
|
||||||
|
types C<discoverall>, C<macwalk>, C<arpwalk>, and C<nbtwalk> will enqueue one
|
||||||
|
corresponding single-device job for each known device. The Netdisco backend
|
||||||
|
daemon will then process the queue (in a random order).
