The command 'sho mac-ad' on the 2950 will display the MAC table, but it's not correlated with IP addresses. The 2950 won't know those since it's strictly a layer-2 device. You need to go to the nearest router and look at its ARP table; for Cisco routers the command is 'sho ip arp' and more recent IOS versions can display the IP address for a particular MAC address (e.g., 'sho ip arp 00b0.d0f3.d495').
There's a component of CiscoWorks 2000 LMS, Campus Manager, that will put that info together and display it for you nicely but CW2K is pricey. You can actually get all the necessary info via SNMP queries but it's a fair amount of research and programming to put it all together. So I think the short answer is, no, there's not an easier way. -- Shane Castle Boulder County Info Svcs Boulder CO On Tue, 10 Jun 2003, Jonathan wrote: >Hi, > >Hope someone can help.
