Subject: Extend cdpCacheCapabilities to show more CDP bits
CDP bits from 0x80 to 0x400 are not shown by $cdp->c_capabilities(). As a change to munge_caps to extend the bits shown from 7 to 11 potentially breaks existing apps, a new way would likely have to be defined. The only documentation I can see of the other CDP capabilities is in http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/csbss/sf20x_sg20x/administrat ion_guide/OL-22849-01.pdf ... although this is for a small business switch, I believe the same capabilities apply to the Catalyst switches as well.
This will be resolved in 3.09. cdp_capabilities() now returns all bits. Additionally, a new method cdp_cap() has been added which returns a hash of arrays with each array containing the system capabilities reported as supported by the remote system via CDP. Thanks for the pointer to the documentation regarding the values of the newer bits.
