Hello,

I have recently installed and configured v1.13 and I am currently attempting to fine tune it. I have a situation where I need to increase the max_macs setting for one router. According to /etc/netdb.conf I can:

"override this value on any individual switch by appending max_macs=XX in the devicelist file”

It also provides an example of:

"# switchname.domain.com,max_macs=100”

Is there some trick to doing this that I am missing? In my testing, the setting from /etc/netdb.conf is always being used no matter what I set in the devicelist file. I have been attempting to trace the variable through the Perl scripts and I can see the variable being read from the devicelist but I can’t decipher why it isn’t being used when cleanTrunks is called.

I have been researching this online but I haven’t found anything that seems related.

The specific scraper I am using is nxosscraper.pl

Thanks,
Eric
