Cisco 3750 stacks?

Hi,

Just curious, does anyone know for a fact if stacks of 3750's work? I added two stand alone 3750's and reporting looks to be ok. I added two stacks and neither of them I get anything useful out of? So on the surface it looks as though there is an issue with support for stacking?

Cacti 0.8.7a
Mactrack 1.1

Just wanted to find out what the general consensus is so I know if I'd be wasting my time trying to get stacks to work with the current mactrack

Regards,
David

I would think so.

I've got some stacks that work and others that don't, which is very strange. Exact same model #, same IOS, same # of 3750s in the stack.

What scan method are you using. I should be "IOS".

Correct.. All of the 3750s are using the same scanning function based on the Vendor Object ID Match.

SysDescription match must contain "IOS". It is likely that you have other issues as well.

I still need the SysDescription even though the Object ID matches and it is definitely performing the right scanning function (as witnessed when I run a manual scan)?

Like I said, some of the 3750s work and others don't, and the switches are all identical right down to the IOS version. I even blew away the mactrack plugin alltogether including database tables, and started from scratch. At first they were all working and now there are a handful of 3750s that don't return any macs. I just haven't had the time to dig in deeper.

You can run the scanner in debug more do shed more light on what is broken. You just need to note the device ID.
