Ok not sure what I am doing wrong here - there has to be a way to remove these unwanted nics.
So you can see info here
I have this in my config.php
// bad interfaces $config['bad_if'][] = "NC-8100w";
I have gone into the database directly and marked the interfaces deleted. But they just get readded, delete gets removed - see the event log in the above screenshots.
So I have turned off discovery for the device, and gone into the database and deleted the records of the intefaces. Which works for a bit - but then they show up again. This is a brother HL-3170cdw printer.. I don't know how I would delete the interface on the device directly.
How do I remove these wireless interfaces from what observium shows. This printer will never use the wireless interfaces it has. So how do I remove them from observium showing them?
You would think if I disable discovery of ports, and then delete them from the database they would never get put back.. But clearly they do - is there some step I am missing?
If you need any other info just please ask.
TIA
