Thanks for the quick response Adam.
A is possible, but the Mikrotik MIB is unsupported (as of yet). I suppose the discovery service could have read some of the linux mib's and got confused since the actual MT mib isn't supported. Who knows. I'll just keep voting for full Mikrotik support. :-)
B Isn't likely as the device couldn't run on that voltage, but the board could have been giving off the wrong value anyway.
C No clue on this one, maybe just missing a decimal point. I guess we can see if anyone else has a similar issue or if I can reproduce it.

There are two ways the alert thresholds will be set :
a) From a manufacturer-supplied value, as with Cisco b) Based on the first measurement +/- a %age which varies based on unit (we allow temperature to vary more than voltage, for example)
The only way you'd have a sensor with a range of 2.0 - 2.5 when the measured value is ~23 is if :
a) The manufacturer supplied this range in the MIB b) The value at initial poll was ~2.3 c) The value passed at initial poll was an order of magnitude wrong, possible due to a bug in our code
There's no way for something to get a threshold an entire order of magnitude wrong without someone having broken something somewhere, either us or the manufacturer. If it's on our side, it's a bug that needs fixed, rather than something which needs worked around via more features.

Cisco may have been a poor example. The problematic ones (with unsupported mibs) have been Mikrotik and the Ubiquiti wireless stuff. Ubiquiti's EdgeMax router is basically Vyatta so it picked up most things on its own, but not all.

On Cisco kit, the limits are provided by IOS as part of CISCO-ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB. If they're wrong, you should open a bug with Cisco.
As a workaround, we allow you to manually set the limits when Cisco fail.

Agreed as well, I can see the complexity around templates as well. The only real complication was just bogus alerts and as Tom just mentioned, smarter auto-limits could be an easy way to fix that. They end user could then customize them individually if they needed something more, ie a switch in a non climate controlled cabinent on a telephone pole that ran hot.

I'm not even sure how you'd template these things, probably something like the alerting matching code, but i suspect it'd be little used, as it'd be really complex. Agreed.
I would prefer smarter auto-limits. Like, for values surrounding 3.3v, use a static set of 3.0-3.5 or whatever, etc.
