|
This is a presence detection scanner for [Cisco](http://www.cisco.com) IOS devices.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p class='note warning'>
|
||||||
|
This device tracker needs SSH to be enabled on the router.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Before using this scanner it is recommended that you lower the arp cache timeout on your router, as Cisco IOS normally comes with a 4 hour default arp cache timeout.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For example, the following commands will lower the timeout to 2 minutes on Vlan1:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# 1. use this command to see what Vlan your devices are on
|
||||||
|
show ip arp
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# 2. Go into configure mode
|
||||||
|
conf t
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# 3. Use the Vlan name as you see it from step 1 above
|
||||||
|
interface Vlan1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# 4. Set a new arp cache timeout
|
||||||
|
arp timeout 120
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# 5. Exit
|
||||||
|
# Press <ctrl+c> to exit configure mode
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# 6. Don't forget to save the new config, so that it will survive a reboot
|
||||||
|
copy running-config startup-config
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p class='note warning'>
|
||||||
|
If you have a very large number of devices on your VLan (+1000), then you may want to adjust the arp cache timeout to suit your needs. See [this discussion](https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/10169296/arp-timeout) to learn more.
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
