Salut Mike,

I you have some sort of server/secure workstation running at each location, adding the dhcp snooping script "load" on one of them would be easy, sending the result back to your InterMapper server for the actual probing.

If you know the MAC addresses, you could do an ARP lookup but, like our dhcp trick, you'd need to run it at each location.

Again, I have no knowledge of the Cisco way of doing things but... Mitel IP phones log-in their primary IP PBX so I could get the MAC/IP addresses from the PBX but it would be a couple order of magnitude harder than with dhcp and I would have to do it for each PBX.

Salut Martin!

Thanks for the idea. With our phone system spread out over 50 sites, that'd be 
a little more involved a solution than I'd like, but it's a much better option 
than nothing!

I take it there's no way to monitor MAC address presence on the network without 
SNMP? Ideally we'd just do that, but Cisco phones don't support SNMP... and 
there might be too much overhead in that approach in any case.

Many thanks,
Mike Beckett
