How to search for switch ports from a list of IP addresses?

[gwhuang5398]

If I have a list of end stations' IP addresses, how can I find out their switch ports without having to find each MAC first then do "sh cam" many times?

What about finding out IP addresses from a list of switch ports?

Thanks

Gary,

I know there are some software soltutions that will let you type in an IP address and it'll tell you what port its connected to in your infrastructure.

Look at Solarwinds I think one of there suites has this ability. I can't think of the other one.

If you type into google "ip address switchport mapper" you'll get a bunch of hits.

Here is one of those hits.
