CDP Application

Guys



Recently my very old and aged copy of Cisco Works V3 running on Windows NT V4 has died and I no longer have the available cash to go out and buy the latest version of CW Campus.



Apart from all the wonderful functionality inside CW I mainly used the network viewer so I could draw out the network topology which I believe relied solely on CDP. This also proved a valuable teaching resource when showing other techies exactly what the front of a Cat5 looked like when you were no where near it. I am aware of Cisco Network Administrator available FOC from CCO but need to map out around 300+ Cisco devices and I believe CNA is limited to 15 nodes



Is anyone aware of any application similar to this which will draw the network. I use SolarWinds on my desktop but am not happy with this for drawing out the topology as it VERY often gets routes and links wrong, as does WhatsUp



In anticipation



Steve
