Hi All,
We're currently evaluating observium as a our main network monitoring tool. We're using Observium CE 0.16.10.8128 and wondering how observium determines a device as unique?
We currently have the same switch added twice (via auto discovery) into observium and wondered why observium didn't detect it as the same device.
Thanks for a wonderful tool!
Kind regards,

It's interesting in the search bar (top right overview page) if I type in a name of a specific switch it comes up twice, however under inventory, device drop-down it appears only once. As far as I can see it's only happening for this one non-important switch.
So I'll just delete it and let Observium rediscover it.
