| ## Description
 | |
| Netdisco is a web-based network management tool designed for network
 | |
| administrators. Data is collected into a PostgreSQL database using SNMP.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Some of the things you can do with Netdisco:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Locate a machine on the network by MAC or IP and show the switch port it lives at
 | |
| * Turn off a switch port, or change the VLAN or PoE status of a port
 | |
| * Inventory your network hardware by model, vendor, software and operating system
 | |
| * Pretty pictures of your network
 | |
| 
 | |
| App::Netdisco provides a web frontend with built-in web server, and a backend
 | |
| daemon to gather information from your network, and handle interactive
 | |
| requests such as changing port or device properties.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Startup
 | |
| Start the web-app server (accessible on port 5000)
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| ~/bin/netdisco-web start
 | |
| ```
 | |
| Start the daemon
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| netdisco$ ~/bin/netdisco-backend start
 | |
| ```
