Discovery of Cisco Stacked Switches - New York

When we Discover a Cisco Stacked Switch, it does not create 1 CI for each switch in stack, but 1 CI, with information about the other switches in stack.   Our network team would like to have 1 CI for each with a hardware relationship showing how they are in a single stack. They want each switch in the stack to have a unique serial number.

Is this possible with out-of-the-box Discovery functionality?
I've done some research, but not finding anything useful for us.

Thanks!

Hi Dave,

Is the Stacked Switch pattern enabled? Are you using probes or patterns?


Thanks,
Ashutosh

Hi,

Using CISCO Catalyst ServiceNow App we are still struggling with the issue detailed by @David77 regarding Stack Switches : they still appear concatenated in ServiceNow CMDB with serial numbers as information.

 

Any ideas?

Hi @Ashutosh Munot, We have to discover stack switches and the network team wanted the complete routing table information. Is it possible?

Hello David ,

We are facing the similar issue . Could you please let me know how you had proceeded in the past in order to individual CI's for each switch in the stack. 

Did you get an answer on this?  We are experiencing the same issue in our environment.  We have Stacked Switches pattern enabled and we could see the information is being fetched for stacked switches in the logs but not creating the individual CIs.

No, we have unfortunately never got a helpful answer on this one.
