NAME
netdisco-do - Run any Netdisco job from the command-line.
SYNOPSIS
~/bin/netdisco-do <action> [-DISQ] [-d <device> [-p <port>] [-e <extra>]]
DESCRIPTION
This program allows you to run any Netdisco poller job from the
command-line.
The "-d" option will accept a hostname (that can be resolved to an IP
with DNS), an IP address, or IP prefix (subnets in CIDR format). It can
be any interface on the device known to Netdisco.
Note that some jobs ("discoverall", "macwalk", "arpwalk", "nbtwalk")
simply add entries to the Netdisco job queue for other jobs, so won't
seem to do much when you trigger them.
ACTIONS
discover
Run a discover on the device (specified with "-d").
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do discover -d 192.0.2.1
discoverall
Run a discover for all known devices.
macsuck
Run a macsuck on the device (specified with "-d").
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do macsuck -d 192.0.2.1
macwalk
Run a macsuck for all known devices.
arpnip
Run an arpnip on the device (specified with "-d").
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do arpnip -d 192.0.2.1
arpwalk
Run an arpnip for all known devices.
delete
Delete a device (specified with "-d"). Pass a log message for the
action in the "-e" parameter. Optionally request for associated nodes
to be archived (rather than deleted) by setting the "-p" parameter to
""yes"" (mnemonic: preserve).
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do delete -d 192.0.2.1
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do delete -d 192.0.2.1 -e 'older than the sun'
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do delete -d 192.0.2.1 -e 'older than the sun' -p yes
renumber
Change the canonical IP address of a device (specified with "-d"). Pass
the new IP address in the "-e" parameter. All related records such as
topology, log and node information will also be updated to refer to the
new device.
Note that no check is made as to whether the new IP is reachable for
future polling.
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do renumber -d 192.0.2.1 -e 192.0.2.254
nbtstat
Run an nbtstat on the node (specified with "-d").
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do nbtstat -d 192.0.2.2
nbtwalk
Run an nbtstat for all known nodes.
expire
Run Device and Node expiry actions according to configuration.
expirenodes
Archive nodes on the specified device. If you want to delete nodes, set
the "-e" parameter to ""no"" (mnemonic: expire). If you want to perform
the action on a specific port, set the "-p" parameter.
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do expirenodes -d 192.0.2.1
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do expirenodes -d 192.0.2.1 -p FastEthernet0/1 -e no
graph
Generate GrapgViz graphs for the largest cluster of devices.
You'll need to install the Graph::Undirected and GraphViz Perl modules,
and possibly also the "graphviz" utility for your operating system.
Also create a directory for the output files.
mkdir ~netdisco/graph
~netdisco/bin/localenv cpanm Graph::Undirected
~netdisco/bin/localenv cpanm GraphViz
show
Dump the content of an SNMP MIB leaf, which is useful for diagnostics
and troubleshooting. You should provide the ""-e"" option which is the
name of the leaf (such as "interfaces" or "uptime").
If you wish to test with a device class other than that discovered,
prefix the leaf with the class short name, for example
""Layer3::C3550::interfaces"" or ""Layer2::HP::uptime"".
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do show -d 192.0.2.1 -e interfaces
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do show -d 192.0.2.1 -e Layer2::HP::interfaces
psql
Start an interactive terminal with the Netdisco PostgreSQL database. If
you pass an SQL statement in the "-e" option then it will be executed.
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do psql
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do psql -e 'SELECT ip, dns FROM device'
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do psql -e 'COPY (SELECT ip, dns FROM device) TO STDOUT WITH CSV HEADER'
location
Set the SNMP location field on the device (specified with "-d"). Pass
the location string in the "-e" extra parameter.
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do location -d 192.0.2.1 -e 'wiring closet'
contact
Set the SNMP contact field on the device (specified with "-d"). Pass
the contact name in the "-e" extra parameter.
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do contact -d 192.0.2.1 -e 'tel: 555-2453'
portname
Set the description on a device port. Requires the "-d" parameter
(device), "-p" parameter (port), and "-e" parameter (description).
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do portname -d 192.0.2.1 -p FastEthernet0/1 -e 'Web Server'
portcontrol
Set the up/down status on a device port. Requires the "-d" parameter
(device), "-p" parameter (port), and "-e" parameter ("up" or "down").
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do portcontrol -d 192.0.2.1 -p FastEthernet0/1 -e up
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do portcontrol -d 192.0.2.1 -p FastEthernet0/1 -e down
vlan
Set the native VLAN on a device port. Requires the "-d" parameter
(device), "-p" parameter (port), and "-e" parameter (VLAN number).
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do vlan -d 192.0.2.1 -p FastEthernet0/1 -e 102
power
Set the PoE on/off status on a device port. Requires the "-d" parameter
(device), "-p" parameter (port), and "-e" parameter ("on" or "off").
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do power -d 192.0.2.1 -p FastEthernet0/1 -e on
~netdisco/bin/netdisco-do power -d 192.0.2.1 -p FastEthernet0/1 -e off

"-I" or "-II"
SNMP::Info trace level (1 or 2).
"-S" or "-SS" or "-SSS"
