Hi Vidar!
Hi!
- If you expand uninett-gw vlan 20 you list a number swports that has vlan20 set.
Correct.
- I realize ideal human sort may be difficult, but port 1/27 should not list before 1/3...
Oops. Fixed.
Excellent. Verified ok.
- where are the port names for the switch ports? use swport.portname
Where is the natural place to display this?
Please place the info as is natural for you to look at in this example: uninett-gw.uninett.no [GigabitEthernet1/5] → teknobyen-5etg-sw5.uninett.no
In this example you do not need the port name, but in the examples where you do not have a known NAV box connected you do:
uninett-gw.uninett.no [GigabitEthernet1/10] → gakkgakk uninett-gw.uninett.no [GigabitEthernet1/26] → sluppen Have a look at the output of the old network explorer for more examples. In other words we use the same arrow and on the right side we put a known to_netbox or we put the port name.
- You find a connection in some cases to another switch, i.e. 1/5 connects teknobyen-5etg-sw5.uninett.no.
- I assume this is a trunk, but you use a single arrow (->)...
Is marked as not trunk in the database at least. Might be a gdd bug or something. nav=# SELECT trunk from swport where moduleid in (select moduleid from module where netboxid = 165) and interface = 'GigabitEthernet1/5'; trunk

ok
* I assume vlan 20 can be found on the connected switch, but no further drilldown is supported...Correct.
You may have misunderstood this. When you know the connected switch, you should provide a plus (+) on this line to allow further drilldown. That is the "whole" point of the tool (or an important point at least) Again look at the old explorer for hints. Example: port gig1/8 should expand to the ports on teknobyen-4etg-sw1.uninett.no which has Fa0/4,9,19 and 22 defined for vlan 20.
* you do not provide a hyperlink to ipdevinfo or to machine tracker for mac adresses or in fact I cannot see a single linkFixed. Trivial stuff has a way of being postponed ;)
Good. But maybe better to open a new browser window, because back in tre browser leaves you at the top of the explorer again.
- back on the router port level you do include prefixes of nettype status. I.e. on Vlan95. You should not.
Hm? I guess you mean static vlan prefixes? Fixed.
I meant static. And it is NOT FIXED.
- I like your active hosts. It seems to me you display the mac if IP cannot be derived, IP if dns name cannot be derived. Correct?
Correct.
- perhaps show both mac and IP if you have that, and mac/IP/dns if that is what you have
Its show the mac-address of the arp-entry no matter what, but yeah, I could make the presentation better here :-)
- your search option is not complete is it? i.e. search for port description...
No, I'm still missing some. I'm getting there though, as I get more and more methods of traversing the network based on different things. Going to finish these asap.
ok
Is this a lot of work on your behalf? How fast can this be done?
I'll try to finish up NetworkExplorer next week, my school time table is pretty allowing for work, so I should be able to have 50% days next week.
Do we have time for a meeting on thursday or friday? suggest a time, or two alternative times.
Also we have some issues with the netw map...
Yeah, the major one there is includind a legend for better understanding the map. Basic test-versions of storing layouts is in trunk already, needs some minor touches though (It doesnt freeze the layout automaticly on stored layouts).
