This is probably a question that should be addressed to the net-snmp developers.

If the description is exposed in ifAlias by the snmp stack, we'll see it, if it's not, we won't.

Subject: [Observium] Pulling VTI interface descriptions from a Centos 7 based router

Hi guys,

is there a way to pull interface descriptions from a Centos 7 based router?
It's based on vti interfaces and the alias parameter:


ip link set vti10 up mtu 1400 alias "test name"

Observium only pulls the interface IP - and has ignored the description so far


Thank you very much in advance
