Adding SNMP Devices issue (device sensor duplication)

Votes:

0

I'm seeing a really weird problem with auto discovery on several SNMP devices. These are older Netgear devices.

When I add the first one, it detects all the ports and names and what not just fine. But on the second and third device, all of the ports show up with the same labeling of the first device! The number of ports differs from the first device (24 vs 48 port devices) but its grabbing all the port descriptions, and traffic from the first device. Some sort of weird data corruption?

Has anyone seen this before and/or know how to fix it?

All devices have the same community string, but are pointed at different IP's of course.

Hello,

Thank you very much for using PRTG. We have not heard of such a behavior of PRTG. Can you please upload some screenshots showing this (including the settings of those devices in PRTG please)? Thank you!

best regards.
