Hello

I have never worked on these switches before so not sure if you have access to the cli on them. Anyhow - via cli on the switch you can discovery a host location via it mac address.

 

Sh mac-address address xxx.xxx.xxx 

This will give you the the port the host its being advertised out and from there you access that neighboring switch and perform the same until you arrive at the specific port the host is attached to.

 

If you don have the mac- address at first but have the ip address, You can check the arp table for the associated L2 address from the L3 switch or Router that's performing the routing.

 

Sh arp |  in (ip address)
