Abstract:
Apparatus and methods for determining a switching device and port to which a user selected end-node in a computer network is connected may include receiving an address of a user determined end-node and discovering a switching device that forwards traffic to no other device on the same port as the switching device forwards traffic to the selected end-node. The apparatus and methods may output an address of the discovered switching device and port to the user.
