Well part of the Cisco MIB does have information on other switches in the stack, so it should be possible to poll the lead switch and get information about other switches in the stack.
So the question is has anyone already created this probe? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul Worth Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2007 9:21 AM To: InterMapper Discussion Subject: Re: [IM-Talk] Has anyone used a probe to watch Cisco 3750 switch stacks? I suspect this might be a shortcoming of the way Cisco "stacks" those particular switches. We have the same issue with several models of HP ProCurve switches. The problem is with the SNMP implementation on the switches and not with InterMapper, I'm afraid.
