Hi All
So this may be a silly question, but I am not able to find any answers
regarding this question. Thanks to the hard work from Oliver over the
weekend, I am now able to query my Dlinks with a very good success rate. So
big hats off to Oliver, thanks!
I am now quering these Dlinks, some are routers and some only switches. But
it seems like I have to manually input every single device to be discovered
manually? Let me try and make it clearer:
Topology:
USR-Backbone1 <----------------------->USR-Backbone2
Uplink1 |
| Uplink 2
------------------> Router A <---------------
| | |
|
Switch 1 Switch 2 Switch X Switch Y
So atm I am able to enter the IP of Router A, and it will discover that it
is connected to at least one of the USR-Backbones. Then, when I drill down
in the device details and click on the "ports" tab, I am able to then again
click on port 1 and see what the IP of the device is connected to it. And
this is great, but I was wondering if it is possible for netdisco to do
this automatically? So basically, if you take the topology above, I want to
be able to get all details of all devices from the USR-backbones right down
to the switch feeding the end user, and all this dynamically/automatically.
These devices should all be added to the inventory list automatically as
well. Is this possible, and am I doing something wrong that this is not
happening when I invoke "discover all" from the web interface?
Sorry for the confusing post!
Regards
Hans

Hi Oliver
The latest installation worked! I started with a VM from scratch, and
created a netdisco user, same as in the installation instructions, and
added some additional D-link mibs. All the tests went through, with no
errors reported at the end. (I had to change one or two files). Submitted a
pull request, so at last I am able to contribute, and not just leech, which
is important to me.
Thanks for ALL your trouble! I really appreciate it!
Regards
Hans
