Great. That is what I was doing so far. Do a show cam dynamic, pasted
it in to Word. From there I was doing a find on the individual mac
address to see which port it was associated with. The funny thing was
that I was not finding any of them. So I thought there should be a
better way or I was doing something wrong.

Thanks.....

You could do a "show cam dynamic", copy the output to a file and then
search for the MAC addresses you are looking for. That will tell you
each port off of the 5509 the computer is attached to.

If they are attached to other switches down off of the 5509 you will
have to do that on all the other switches to find the exact port. I
believe the command on IOS switches is "show mac".

That's probably the best way to go about it.

Sorry for the ot. I have a questions for you switching experts. I am
running code WS-C5500 Software, Version McpSW: 4.5(1) NmpSW: 4.5(1) on a
Cisco catalyst 5509. I am trying to find out which ports a couple
hundred mac addresses correspond to on this switch. The reason behind
this is that I am moving all of these users into a new vlan. I'm sure
there are a couple ways to do this...Based on your experience....what is
the most efficient way to do this.
Thanks......Dave
