CDP Features
Introduction
In a Switch 4108GL, CDP-v1 (Cisco Discovery Protocol, version 1) provides
data that aids SNMP-based network mapping utilities designed to discover
devices running CDP in a network. To make this data available, the switch
transmits information about itself via CDP packets to adjacent devices, and
also receives and stores information about adjacent devices running CDP. This
enables each CDP device to receive and maintain identity data on each of its
CDP neighbors and pass this information off to an SNMP utility designed to
query the CDP area of the device’s MIB.
N o t e
To take advantage of CDP in Switch 4108GL, you should have a working
knowledge of SNMP operation and an SNMP utility capable of polling the
switches for CDP data. HP’s implementation of CDP places specific data into
the switch’s Management Information Base (MIB). However, retrieval of this
data for network mapping is dependent on the operation of your SNMP utility.
Refer to the documentation provided with the utility.
