Hi,

Please keep netdisco-users in the CC: the discussion might benefit
others and you might get a quicker or better response from the list.

I can only give you a generic answer: if Netdisco can map the
connections between your Nortel switches, it does so using a discovery
protocol that your switches support.

Perhaps I can tell you which MIB objects are used for your switches if
you run "./netdisco -d <switch> -D" and post the output. So, have
Netdisco discover/refresh one of your switches with debugging enabled
and copy/paste the results to the list or on a site like Pastebin.

Or maybe someone else on the list knows exactly how Netdisco does this
for Nortel switches... it might help if you mention the switch model and
perhaps firmware version.
