I would like to ask you for help: Does somebody know how to detect Cisco Discovery Protocol via tcpdump?
Currently I'm using following command, but I'm not sure by this:
tcpdump -i eth0 -nn "ether[20:2]==0x2000"
Some hints are appreciated. Thank you ...

I normally use this filters
tcpdump -nvi bce0 -s 1500 ether dst 01:00:0c:cc:cc:cc
replace bce0 with your network interface.
This will output the hole CDP information, received from ether the switch or the host itself (if you have a cdpd running on the host)
This will output Switch-Name, Port, Switch Type, Software, VLAN and so on...
the output will look similar to this:
$tcpdump -nvi bce0 -s 1500 ether dst 01:00:0c:cc:cc:cc
tcpdump: WARNING: bce0: no IPv4 address assigned
tcpdump: listening on bce0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 1500 bytes
