Overview
Netdisco is an Open Source web-based network management tool.
Here are some of the favorite uses for this tool:
- Locate a machine on the network by MAC or IP and show the switch port it lives at.
- Turn Off a switch port while leaving an audit trail. Admins log why a port was shut down.
- Inventory your network hardware by model, vendor, switch-card, firmware and operating system.
- Report on IP address and switch port usage: historical and current.
- Pretty pictures of your network.
Things connected to the network are divided into two categories:
Support
If you have problems with Netdisco you should :
- Talk to your Network Administrator who installed Netdisco
- Check for a Newer Release of Netdisco
and SNMP::Info.
- Check for Bugs
- Search the Mailing List Archives
- Ask a Question on the Mailing List
Development
The developers are now maintaining a registry of Netdisco installs. This is
mainly for morale boosting purposes, but also helps us direct feature requests
to our target audience. One drawback of the Source Forge system is that we
have no idea how many people are using the software compared to the number of
downloads.
Please spend a minute to let us know you're using Netdisco at
http://netdisco.org/register.html.
Netdisco is an Open Source project
headed up by developers Eric Miller, Bill Fenner, Oliver Gorwits and Max Baker,
originally created at
UCSC
All bug reports, bug patches, feature enhancements and requests and issues are
served through
Source Forge
and our mailing lists. New developers and maintainers are always welcome.
