Please look at the documentation in ${PREFIX}/doc/ for details. - add the netdisco administrator(s) account(s) to the netdisco group - edit ${PREFIX}/netdisco/netdisco.conf to suit your needs. You have to set the database password here and in netdisco_apache.conf. - cd to ${PREFIX}/netdisco/sql/ and run ./pg --init to create the netdisco database in postgresql. - Add a user to the netdisco system: ${PREFIX}/netdisco/netdisco -u joebob Give this user administration privileges, so that it will be able to create other users though the web interface. - Import the OUI database http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/oui.txt with ${PREFIX}/netdisco/netdisco -O - Add an appropriate crontab to user netdisco. ${EGDIR} contains an example. - Include netdisco in your apache config. ${EGDIR} contains two config fragments: netdisco_apache.conf and netdisco_apache_dir.conf which can be included in the httpd.conf to make netdisco available though http://your.host.name/netdisco/ - Make netdisco discover one of your devices: ${PREFIX}/netdisco/netdisco -d devicename - Make netdisco discover your network topology, if supported by your devices: ${PREFIX}/netdisco/netdisco -r devicename If not supported by your devices, you'll have to fill in ${PREFIX}/netdisco/netdisco-topology.txt. - start the admin daemon: /etc/rc.d/netdisco start ===========================================================================
