Don't you hate when after 4hs troubleshooting a new cluster deployment, you found out cabling on 3 out of 20 servers was wrong? (Best case scenario).

After running several remotely assisted deployments I found I needed a tool to standardize troubleshooting across several teams.

I came up with a little tool you might find useful and I would like to share:

https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ciriarte:/network-tools/

Would love to receive feedback. It was tested with PVE and Juniper switches (QFX), should work with any switch sharing information with the host via LLDP.

If someone around can help me with the sponsorship to push it to Debian, it would be awesome.
