Hi Mike,

 

Thank you for the fix.

We understand that it is on the pro edition for the moment. We will see what we can do 😉

 

Regarding sysLocation, we see the same problem.

 

For instance, this is part of one device properties:

 

version      =>     15.1R5.5

hardware     =>     EX4200-24F

features     =>     Ethernet Switch

location     =>     Ibiza, Islas Baleares, Espa..a

os     =>     junos

status =>     1

 

where it says Espa..a, it should say España. Seems that the "ñ" was replaced by two unknown characters, probably from the utf8 codification.

 

If there is any debug information that I can send for this case, let me know.

 

Thanks.

Best regards.

Your issue should be fixed in r8959.

But currently this is only in Pro edition ;)

 

Anyway sysLocation should be already normally collected with UTF8 chars
