Hi
We got new HP ProCurve 2524 switches. cfgmaker refused to walk ifAlias for these things (so port names were ignored). So I hacked cfgmaker to do it. I've absolutely no idea what I've been doing, but it worked. Here's the patch:

I figured out that this part of code seems to be looking for sysObjectID.0, which on the ciscos is:
OID: SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.1.278
...and on the procurves:
OID: SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.11.2.3.7.11.19
...so I used 1.3.6.1.4.1.11 to identify it as a hp switch. Perhaps the full OID would be better? Hope I'll have time to look into the code and figure out what it really does, but it'd be nice if someone more knowledgeable helped me on this...
cheers
