Campus manager discovery with CDP disabled

[amilkar-loyo]

Due to international policies, I need to turn off CDP at wan interfaces and I still needing to discover that network, Is there any way to discover the network without using the CDP protocol?

No

ANI can't discover the network but you can enter the devices manually. It'd be laborious, but you could walk through the arp caches on the devices moving outward and add the Cisco devices you find manually to the CM maps.

Could you explain the step-by-step procedure for manually adding devices to the CM map. I understand that CM does not support PIX firewalls and VPN concentrators (obviously they do not support CDP). I need to add these to the map though to complete the network.

Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks
