To Scan the Switches again, use the Scan link.
IfMtu: The size of the largest packet which can be sent/received on the interface, specified in octets.ĭuplex: The duplex state of the port as half-duplex, full duplex, etc. IP Address: The IP Address of the connected device.ĭNS Name: The DNS name of the connected device.ĭevice Type: The type of the connected device as Windows, Linux, Switch etc. Refer to Mapping Devices to Physical Location for details.Ĭonnected MAC: The physical address of the connected devices. Physical Location: The physical location of the connected devices. You can configure the number of days of inactivity beyond which a port has to be declared as Available from Switch Port Mapper Settings. If the ports are currently down and/or down for less than 10 continuous days, the ports are shown as Transient. Ports that are continuously down for more than 10 days are shown as Available. Status: The operation status of the port.Īdmin Status: The administrative state of the port/interface.Īvailability: Indicates whether the port is Available or Used. IfAlias: The user-defined name of the port/interface. IfDescr: The description of the port/interface. IfIndex: Refers to the port number in the switch. Click the Switch Name / IP Address link from the Switches View or from the Summary Info View to view its details. Once you have added all the switches, the mapping will be automatically performed by the network port scanner and the status of the mapping is displayed.
The new column gets added to the port/switch-level as defined. You can also define your own data type by clicking the Custom Datatype link.ĭefault Value: The default value for this columnĭescription: A brief description about this column.
It can be String for text, Integer for numbers, Boolean for true or false, or File for adding a file input. This will list all the columns that have been added already.Ĭolumn At: Specify whether this column is for the port level or at the switch level.ĭata Type: Specify what type of data you wish to store in this column. To add a custom column, follow the steps below:Ĭlick the Settings - >OpUtils -> SPM link. These columns can be used to store any specific information about the switch/device connected to that port. Switch Port Mapper allows you to add custom columns both at the port-level and at the switch-level for adding user-defined inputs. Once Only - to run the tool only once at the scheduled time.Īdding Custom Columns to the Switch Port Mapper You need to specify starting time, select a day and select a month/months.
Monthly - to update on a specific day every month(s). You need to specify the starting time and the day(s) on which the update should happen. Weekly - to update on specific day(s) in a week. Hourly - to update every 6, 8, or 12 hours from the specified timeĭaily - to update everyday. Select Enable from the scheduler combo and specify the interval to perform the scan: The "Available Switches" will list all the switches that have been added in the Switch Port Mapper tool. Provide a name for the task and choose the switches to be added to this task. This opens the schedules tasks and lists all the tasks that have been already created.
A switch cannot exist in more than one task.Ĭlick Scheduler link from top-right. While you schedule scanning, you can logically group the switches to a task and scan them separately.
The Switch Port Mapper utility of OpUtils software discovers the devices plugged into each port of a specified switch.
