Hi,

i do now have Ciscos running quite well, but HP ProCurves do not work.
Playing with mactrack_hp_ng.php i do get what i have attached.

I do test with:
System: HP J4819A ProCurve Switch 5308xl, revision E.10.52, ROM E.05.04 (/sw/code/build/alpmo(m35))
Uptime: 1606373079
ObjectID: .1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.11.17

VLANs are already discovered well with ID and Name.

Portnumber and Portname do not work, but no wonder looking into the HP Portnaming.

What can i do to get this trunk detection fixed?

I will try to write a working scanning function.

Port number and Port name are looking fine now. Trunk detection is implemented by counting how many vlans are attached to a port. If a port has more vlans than 1 it is handled as a trunk port.

After a quick test with HP ProCurve 2524, 2626, 2848 i think things should work with this devices as well.

As i have not looked into the "Ports to Ignore" stuff this will definitely not work with the 5308xl, but probably also not with the other ProCurves.

Installation instructions:
1. Copy mactrack_hp_ngi.php into ./plugins/mactrack/lib
2. Register in ./mactrack/lib/mactrack_vendors.php
include_once($config["base_path"] . "/plugins/mactrack/lib/mactrack_hp_ngi.php");
3. In cacti : Tracking Utilities -> Refresh Scanning Functions
4. Select the new scanning function for your HP device types in
"MAC Address Scanning Function"
