would it be possible to develop a driver for cisco SMB (Small Business series 200, 300. 500) switches. I have customers using cisco smb switches. They are managable support LLDP, CDP, SNMP, STP.
Which information you would need for that?

Hi!

Most of the functionality should work out of the box. Driver is needed to provide VLAN information and picture of physical ports. Ideally would be to get output of full SNMP walk (starting .1).

Best regards,

Ok I short list what I get at the moment from such a switch (Cisco SG300):
'Show VLANs':   ok
'Layer2 Topology':   empty (only Switch itself)
Tools - Info - Topology Table (CDP):   empty
Tools - Info - Topology Table (LLDP):   empty
Tools - Info - Switch forwarding database: ok
Object Details - Ports:      empty
Object Details - Interfaces:   ok
Capabilities:   isBridge, isCDP, isLLDP, isSNMP, isSTP, hasEntityMIB, hasifXTable
Poll - Topology:
   VLAN list successfully retrieved from node
   Switch forwarding database retrieved
   Link layer topology retrieved (3 connections found)
   Updating peer information on interfaces
   Local interface gi2 linked to remote interface host1.domain.com:eth0
   Local interface gi10 linked to remote interface host2.domain.com:eth1
   Local interface gi3 linked to remote interface host3.domain.com:eth0
   Link layer topology processed
   Finished topology poll for node switch.domain.com
   **** Poll completed successfully ****

Can I send you the output of snmpwalk by mail?

So basically almost everything is working. CDP may be empty if nobody in the network sends CDP packets except that switch.

Yes, you can send dump by mail.
