Deployment Solution 572
Managing Switches
GUI Tools
The Switch Management Console includes a Tools menu, providing a Ping IP Range
command to assist in "pinging" a specified IP range in order to generate traffic to a
range of devices that might otherwise be inactive. From this dialog you can specify the
starting and ending IP addresses to ping. Success or failure messages will appear in the
list.
The Ping IP Range tool can be used to lookup the MAC address of the device being
pinged. To be successful, SNMP must be enabled on the end device. The user can supply
an SNMP Read community name to perform this operation. Otherwise, the user may
clear the SNMP MAC Lookup box to ping only the end device.
Note
If a device is inactive, the forwarding tables in the switch will not show the MAC address
of the client or server computer. The
Ping IP Range tool can be used to refresh the
forwarding table in the switch.
Deployment Solution Switch Add-On (Command Line Options)
Along with the Deployment Solution Switch Add-On graphical program, a command-line
interface is provided that will support the command line arguments listed below. This
program file is named
switchcfg.exe
. It will be executed from the same directory
that the database file (
SwitchMngtDb.txt
) is located.
Command-line Interface Parameters
By executing the
switchcfg.exe
without any arguments, you can see the usage of the
CLI application as below.
The following is a description of the available command line arguments and how they
are to be used:
-m=<mode> This indicates the mode of the operation to be performed. The two
possible values are: 1) discover, and 2) set (as in set VLAN).
-d=<target ip> This indicates the switch (by IP address) to perform the operation on.
-r=<read community> The SNMP read community name (password) to use to
discover the switch.
-w=<write community> The SNMP write community name (password) to use to
perform any set operations on the indicated device.
-p=<port name> The name of the switch port the user is attempting to configure.
-v=<VLAN number> The VLAN number to set the switch port to (or).
-n-<VLAN name> The VLAN name to set the switch port to.
-e=<end node MAC address> The MAC address of the workstation/server you want
to be put in a particular VLAN. In order for the utility to perform this operation correctly,
the connectivity of the MAC address must have already been assigned using the GUI
application. When using this option, the user must only supply the SNMP write
community (password) and the VLAN (name or number) to put the workstation/server
in. The CLI application will use its database to lookup the appropriate (bound) switch
and switch port to provision.
