Feature Request: Ability to choose to show only the hostname portion of the RDNS:

Can macTrack do following?:

1. Find from the router (routers), what is the router's IP on certain VLAN
2. For each Switch perform a check, on which port it has MAC of this router's interface
3. Automatically add it into the list of disabled ports.

I don't think so, however, you could simply write that one yourself. You would look for ports on a switch that have multiple mac's associated with them but are not trunk ports. This would likely indicate a link port.

This technique could be used to detect router uplinks and also for rougue switches. However, there are many other techniques for performing that, including the higher end switches themselves.

I like the idea of having multiple sites. Unfortunately for us, each site has their own DNS server and machines at each site register on the DNS server at that site. So basically, the machines at remote sites are not able to resolve their hostnames. Hence, would it be possible to have different DNS server settings for each site?

Thanks.

That's kind of WHAC. Why do you now have forwarding of information, or a hierarchy setup?

TheWitness

[NetAdmin]

Oops.. I stand corrected. Everything does forward to the central DNS servers. In fact, I can do a reverse lookup on the central servers for any IP at a remote site. I guess this is a mactrack issue then. I do notice that it is able to resolve a couple of remote IP address names (like maybe 3 or 4 out of several hundred), but that's it.. Any thoughts?

[TheWitness]

Can you use Wireshark to perform a capture during that portion of the scanning. You can run it manually in debug mode and then do the capture during the resolution portion. PM or e-mail me the capture file.

Found a Bug, but not sure if it's been reported yet or not, I do have the latest version of MacTrack installed.

If you're on Mac/IP Report and you select a site. If the listing of information flows over to a second page, and you select that page, then select another site. It will attempt to display records starting at an incorrect index.

I think the images will make more sense.

[TheWitness]

Yup, the form logic is missing a check for the siteid. I will fix momentarily, since I am sort of on vacation and have a few minutes.

TheWitness

[TheWitness]

Ok, should be fixed. You should now be going to the main Cacti site plugins repository and not the old mactrack one, just in case you did not know.

I think this is what you should use:

Thank you all for a great tool!

My apologies if I'm incorrect or have an older version (5/15/07. I've been looking at this for a few days, it arbitrarily detects macs on some switches and not on others. In any case, my finding are below.

mactrack_cisco.php - 2 places

$device["vlans_total"] = sizeof($vlan_ids) - 3;
mactrack_debug("There are " . (sizeof($vlan_ids)-3) . " VLANS.");

VLANS 1002, 1003, 1004, 1005 are ignored - the count is off by one, I think you need to subtract 4, not 3 - cosmetic I think.


mactrack_functions.php

Within function get_base_dot1dTpFdbEntry_ports :

if (@$port_status[$key] == "3") {
$port_key_array[$i]["key"] = $key;

I think it should be :

if (!in_array($port_number, $ignore_ports)) {
if ((@$port_status[$key] == "3") || (@$port_status[$key] == "5")) {

as in the function get_base_wireless_dot1dTpFdbEntry_ports, otherwise the "static" macs on switch ports get ignored, hence no macs reported for any vlans.

There is also something up with the Voice Vlan detection in mactrack_cisco.php. All my switches return "4096" as the Voice port vlans - which means there isn't a voice vlan (acc'd to Cisco mib)
Yet it is being detected as a voice vlan because all ports report back, (size > 0, the logic in the php) .

Thanks again,
Dave
