[![Docker Image](https://img.shields.io/badge/docker%20images-ready-blue.svg)](https://store.docker.com/community/images/netdisco/netdisco)**Netdisco** is a web-based network management tool suitable for small to very large networks. IP and MAC address data is collected into a PostgreSQL database using SNMP, CLI, or device APIs. Some of the things you can do with Netdisco:
* Locate a machine on the network by MAC or IP and show the switch port it lives at
* Turn off a switch port, or change the VLAN or PoE status of a port
* Inventory your network hardware by model, vendor, software and operating system
* Pretty pictures of your networkSee the demo at: [https://netdisco2-demo.herokuapp.com/](https://netdisco2-demo.herokuapp.com/)
## Installation
Netdisco is written in Perl and Python and is self-contained apart from the PostgreSQL database, so is very easy to install and runs well on any linux or unix system. We also have [docker images](https://store.docker.com/community/images/netdisco/netdisco) if you prefer.
It includes a lightweight web server for the interface, a backend daemon to gather data from your network, and a command line interface for troubleshooting. There is a simple configuration file in YAML format.
Please check out the [installation instructions](https://metacpan.org/pod/App::Netdisco) on CPAN. When upgrading, make sure to check the latest [Release Notes](https://github.com/netdisco/netdisco/wiki/Release-Notes).
