Which of the following would be displayed by the command "SHOW CDP NEIGHBOR
DETAIL"
a) The incomming/outgoing port
b)The routers hostname
c) Ammount of Flash Memory Available
d) The Subnet Mask , if IP is configured

At no point in there other than at the command line do I see the routers
name
Can anyone advise at all?
Thats the Device ID the hostname is
version 12.1
service timestamps debug uptime
service timestamps log uptime
service password-encryption
!
hostname I-netlink_Cisco
Thats because you set a device ID in the SNMP community. That over rides the
host name as showing in the CDP table.
To prove it, remove the snmp ID setting.
Clear CDP info.
Wait about 30seconds and you'll see the table populated with the hostnames
as opposed to the device ID's.

The "Device ID" field is the device hostname (i.e. "Server_Room_Switch",
"Hydro_2950t"). It is listed at the beginning of the "show cdp nei
detail" output.
