Let say I have radio 1 connected to radio 2 in wireless. Then the two radios send a CDP packet to each other. What will happen on a Access Point. Is there any standard for those APs in the markets?
Is the information on the CDP packet stored on the neighboring radios that we can query to discover the neighbors?
Look at this scenario.
- [Cisco switch] ←Ethernet→ [AP #1] ⇠Wi-Fi⇢ [Client #2]
At the moment, the Cisco switch can see both AP #1 and #2 as neighbors but not sure if that is correct behavior? I would expect that the Cisco switch can only see AP #1 and you will need to query the cisco-cdp-mib in AP #1 to locate AP #2.
Appreaciate if anyone here can give me some hints.
Two APs don't generally connect to each other, so even if "AP #2" was manufactured as an AP, it's acting like a client station here, I think. – user1686 – 2017-02-15T06:45:18.127
