I have written a script to search for mac address on a cisco network – findmac 1.3b2
findmac is a utility written in Perl that helps administrators find out exactly which switch and which port a host is patched into. Only CISCO equipment with CDP enabled is currently supported. It is a very useful tool for administrators of large scale CISCO networks.
You can download it from here –
