Port Report Project RSS

I decided to create a container, just for port_report.py and its revisions. This seems to be the most popular download since its incfeption and I'm activly adding to the script as well as fixing bugs.

Let me make this one thing clear about port_report.py and one limitation it has when searching for IP Addresses on a switch ( not really a limitation of the script ). When searching by IP address, the IP Address has to be in the ARP table, if the IP is not in the ARP table then the script will report that the IP Address is not in the ARP table. I know I sound redundant but I have been asked this question alot. The better thing to do is to search by MAC Address as this is more then likely to be on the switch. That is all depending on how often the table gets clean.
