Ok then im confused? Because its still showing ‘ifDescr’ instead of the ‘ifName’ ?

The only thing I have noticed is the IfName is in the IfXEntry output and the ifDescr is in the ifEntry output

Does that make any difference?

Im currently on Observium 18.10.9452 (rolling)

In current Pro ifName already used for TP-Link switches (instead ifDescr).

Hi All

Im trying to find out if its possible to use IfName instead of ifDescr?

TP-Link TL-SG3109 switch

For some DUMB reason, all the ifDescr are being discovered as ‘Ethernet Interface’

ifDescr.1 = Ethernet Interface                                                                                                                                                                                       
ifDescr.2 = Ethernet Interface
ifDescr.3 = Ethernet Interface
ifDescr.4 = Ethernet Interface
ifDescr.5 = Ethernet Interface
ifDescr.6 = Ethernet Interface
ifDescr.7 = Ethernet Interface
ifDescr.8 = Ethernet Interface
ifDescr.9 = Ethernet Interface

So when you look down the list on Observium, I have 9 Ethernet Interface (not helpful)

I can put descriptions on each port and they get discovered by observium and show underneath the Ethernet Interface (but still not very helpful)

I have noticed however tho in the debug output of the poller, ifName are being found as the port numbers as listed on the web interface of the switch!

ifName.1 = g1
ifName.2 = g2
ifName.3 = g3
ifName.4 = g4
ifName.5 = g5
ifName.6 = g6
ifName.7 = g7
ifName.8 = g8
ifName.9 = g9

So is it possible to switch them round?

Attached is the debug output from the switch if its helpful to anyone :) 




Regards

Simon
