The Port Report Project is essentially a Switch Port Mapper Tool or a Switch Port Mapping Tool like a few other commercial products out there, except The Port Report Project is free. Right now there is no GUI or WEB interface for the project but it is in the works.
This project started off as being a simple 150 line script that did something quite simple... Its only purpose was to find MAC Addresses on a switch. Then I was asked could you also search by IP, so I added that. Now I was asked to search by Port, so I added that. Well you get where this is all going.... My goal now is to build the equivalent of other commercial port mapping tools, but Open Source....
On this page I will be keeping all the updates to this Project, so please keep checking back every now and again for updates.
You can get any revision of the Port Report tool here http://www.linuxdynasty.org/Port-Report-Project/

Any issues with the LD Port Report Project, please discuss here in the forums
This script requires, Pysnmp and Pyasn1. If you have python-setuptools, you can install it by running this..
easy_install pysnmp, easy_install pyasn1
Three things you will need for this script to work..
- Pysnmp
- Pyasn1
- SNMP Access to the switch you want to talk too and its community string.
To make your life easier you should do the following
- install python-setuptools
- then run easy_install pysnmp
- and easy_install pyasn1
- or you can download the 2 modules manually.
pysnmp and pyasn1
- then unzip the 2 files and in each directory run python setup.py install
I am using the following revisions from the python cheese shop pysnmp 4.1.12a and pyasn1 0.0.9a
For revision 1.12 and above..... If you installed pyasn1 and pysnmp using easy_install. Please uninstall it now and install the newest revision and run python setup.py install Instead of using easy_install.
Revision history and Examples below.....
-
Revision 1.13 10/01/09
- Fixed line 348 as per christianha. return nmac.lower()
This fix will allow you to pass a MAC in all uppercase and still match though the switch is responding in lowercase.
00 E0 B8 81 E8 B7 will now match 00 e0 b8 81 e8 b7
Revision 1.12 09/18/09
- The report option of the script can now follow cdp neighbors using the --follow option or -f.
When you run the command below it will create ONE CSV file per cdp neighbor it scanned.
I was able to scan from my core Switch down to the last neighbor in the line ( 44 Neighbors in just under 20 minutes. )
Which equaled to a little over 4K Mac Addresses
For instance...port_report.py -d 192.168.101.1 -c public -r -f
Revision 1.11 09/13/09
- More code clean up and another increase in speed.
- Also port_report can now follow EtherChannel
- Added better verbosity
- Added Sanity Checking for cdp neighbors
Revision 1.10 09/09/09
- Code Clean up and a slight increase in speed ( by a few seconds ) during the search by mac or ip
Revision 1.9
Code changes and Added CDP Support
- Detect CDP Neighbors during the scan for MAC Addresses or IP Addresses
Revision 1.8
Here is a quick update.....
- I just add dns reverse lookups to the output of this script.
Revision 1.7
Adds support to the following devices..
- Cisco
- Catalyst 6509 w/ Supervisor 720 running IOS
