MAp IP address to interface on a cisco catalyst 3524 switch
I need to know how to map the interface on a catalyst 3524 closet switch to the IP address of the node connected to that interface.
Basically, we have 4 cisco catalyst switches in a subnet and one of the nodes in theses subnets is causing a lot of traffic, so I want to figure out the switch and the interface on the switch that connects to this node. Is there a network managment tool that does this for me?
2 more related questions that I have are:
1. Can a cisco catalyst 3524 switch act as a DHCP server
2. Can a cisco catalyst 3524 swict block traffic on a certain port based on a threshhold traffic value.

Switch port mapper from Solarwinds does this. Or you could do it manually, get the mac address from the mac-address-table on the switch then look in your routers arp cache to determine the IP address being used. Thats all Solarwinds does but of course its automated.

Other 2 questions:
1. No, I'm pretty sure it can't act as a DHCP server
2. Yes, use storm control.

2) no, this is a switch, not a router/firewall Switches work on the MAC adress to send packages to the right port, they don't care what protocol you're using.
