For some manufacturers (e.g. Cisco) you CAN get the MAC address of
device - look through dot1dTpFdbAddress. You need to get IP address/MAC
pairings from routers via atPhysAddress and then 'smush' those together.
Following are a few of my notes:
# dot1dTpFdbAddress contains the Bridge Table with MAC addresses heard
on each port.
# It's indexed by a decimal representation of the MAC address which is
its value.
#
#
# dot1dTpFdbStatus contains either "mgmt", "self", or "learned" for each
MAC address
# It's indexed by a decimal representation of the MAC address like
dot1dTpFdbAddress
#
# dot1dTpFdbPort maps the index into dot1dTpFdbAddress to a bridge port
number
#
#
# Finally, dot1dBasePortIfIndex maps the value from dot1dTpFdbPort into
an ifIndex
