I have a script to reset inactive workstation interfaces to our default. The issue I'm running into is how to determain what interfaces have been inactive for 60 or more days within the CCS script.
Any thoughts on how to find inactive ports?
Thank You
Am I the only one that wants to shut down unused interfaces?
I have an idea about this, i do not know about the scripting though. You already can scan ports that are inactive. So if you put these in a database with a timestamp on them.
Then setup the switches to send snmp traps to a trap receiver or a syslog server. If you are able to analyse this data you should be able to determine for the ports in your database if there is no state change during the period that you want. This should be a fool proof method.
The not fool proof method could be probing the inactive port from time to time, of course there is always a chance ports are active when you are not probing.
