Hey all,

 

Ive picked up another issue ive come across in relation to arpnip’s and 
netdisco picking up for matching to mac addresses

 
Ive found on ArubaOS controllers this does not work, and gets 0 arps and ive 
seen it on a couple of Aruba switches or two. This is running the netdisco-do 
arpnip function when I look at the output.
Ive also noticed on Cisco SDWAN platform using Cisco ISR 1127/1131 which has 
VRF’s on a router it also doesn’t appear to match arps to macs probably because 
it has VRFs? 
I tried to use the SSH script in this instance but still didn’t work. The 
routers I have are running IOS XE, which doesn’t seem to work with the SSH 
collector, as that only has IOS and IOSXR

 

1) I wanted to ask, is there a troubleshooting method for arps retrieval, and 
what part of code handles the arp matching?

2) What if I have a IOS XE router with vrf’s is it able to retrieve IP to mac 
mappings? If I can do a “show arp vrf 2000” this shows the list, but how do I 
make that available into netdisco?

3) What part of the code in the netdisco looks at arp retrieval and then 
storing it into the db into particular method? Is there something that can be 
tweaked how it interprets the data, say for a Aruba Controller, or a Cisco 
router with vrfs etc

 

Sorry if its been asked before .. but im finding lately due to the environment 
getting complex I wouldn’t mind how the whole arp storing works and getting 
more things to work better .

Hi,

I'm also interested in this, and while I'm not sure I can answer your question 
it gives me a chance to mention these lingering tickets.

Unclear whether you meant Aruba OSCX, but it's certainly a problem there.  I 
can't remember for (AOS) ArubaOS (wireless controllers).  This issue refers for 
OSCX: https://github.com/netdisco/snmp-info/issues/452   And it seems due to 
the use of "newer" MIBs rather than the classic ones this would require some 
fundamental changes in SNMP-Info.

Using an SSH collector is suggested as a workaround:

https://github.com/netdisco/netdisco/discussions/869

(I might take Olly's suggestion and convert that to an issue)

But that doesn't work for me as it stands:

https://github.com/netdisco/netdisco/issues/1230

That's for ArubaOSCX - it would need modifying or another one doing for ArubaOS.

I've no reason to believe there is any problem with ArubaOS-Switch (i.e. 
classic Procurve).

Jethro.
