[FC] Force10 Networks E300 issue

Post by perjaka »

Hi all,

I have an issue with E300 polling for Mactrack and have been looking into the /lib/*.php scripts. I was wondering if anyone has any scripts for contribution for quick support of E and S series Force10 devices.

If not, can someone assist in helping me understand what I need to modify with OID information for vlan, port and mac address with correlation to IP addresses?

Thanks.

It shows that it is gathering information. I looked in the tables and didn't see anything.

Code: Select all

function get_standard_arp_table($site, &$device) {
	global $debug, $scan_date;

	/* get the atifIndexes for the device */
	$atifIndexes = xform_indexed_data(".1.3.6.1.2.1.3.1.1.1", $device, 6);

	/* wcm mod 2006-02-17
	   This mod is put in to handle the nortel accelar arp table
	   ifIntcount == 0 represents a nortel arp, 1 is the original
	*/
	if (sizeof($atifIndexes) > 0) {
		$ifIntcount = 1;
	}else{
		$ifIntcount = 0;
	}
	if ($ifIntcount == 0) {
		$atifIndexes = xform_indexed_data(".1.3.6.1.2.1.4.22.1.1", $device, 5);
	}
	mactrack_debug("atifIndexes data collection complete");
For this function code the OID .1.3.6.1.2.1.3.1.1.1 returns nothing, the OID (nortel hack .1.3.6.1.2.1.4.22.1.1) returns (xx.xx is a valid IP <removed>):

IP-MIB::ipNetToMediaIfIndex.1107787877.XX.XX.184.1 = INTEGER: 1107787877
IP-MIB::ipNetToMediaIfIndex.1107787877.XX.XX.184.21 = INTEGER: 1107787877
IP-MIB::ipNetToMediaIfIndex.1107787877.XX.XX.184.22 = INTEGER: 1107787877
IP-MIB::ipNetToMediaIfIndex.1107787877.XX.XX.184.24 = INTEGER: 1107787877

and so on.

E, S and C series issues

Post by perjaka »

I read that this plugin has run its course due to lack of interest so I'll be tearing up in attempts to get it to work with the Force10 gear. We had a developer look into this and he said it was fairly spread out and he couldn't wrap his head around it. We might just write some code of our own to grab the OID info and inject into the tables and do some basic Move/add/change cleanup each pass.

MacTrack is designed for you to write your own Scanning Functions. For now, the plugin is frozen for development. The problem is that in order for these thing to advance, people like youself need to contribute back with say a Force10 scanning function and CSV device type template.

I do plan on making another version of this plugin later this year. I am currently enbroiled in writing several other plugins that I can't talk too much about.

So, it's not dead, it's maturing.

agreed. when I have some free time (or our developer does) we'll definitely share any mods we make with the community.

I have implemented a little differently in SVN now. It will be standard in 2.0, unless I change my mind. (as it's not standard).
