cdpr [-h] [-t seconds ] [-d device | -r pcap-file ] [-u server-config-file ] [-l location ] [-n hostname ] [-s server ] [-p script-path ]

cdpr listens on specified network interfaces for Cisco Discovery Protocol packets. It then decodes those packets and outputs the information, optionally sending the information to a server for processing.

-d device

Specify device to use (eth0, hme0, etc.)

-r pcap-file

Specify file to read from instead of network device.

-h

Print the usage.

-t seconds

Time in seconds to abort waiting for a packet (should be > 60)

-v[vv]

Set verbose mode.

-u server-config-file

Send cdpr information to a cdpr server. See /usr/share/doc/cdpr/README.cdprs

-l location

Location/description of this port; for use with -u or -s and -p.

-n hostname

Override the hostname reported to the server; for use with -u or -s and -p.

-s server

Server to send information to, specify port with a: after server/IP. Example: 192.168.1.20:88 (default: 80) requires -p (overridden by -u)

-p script-path
