[Catalyst] in every device name?

Why is it that PRTG automatically puts [Catalyst] in every device that gets auto-discovered? It does this with servers, computers, routers, switches, printers and every other device.

This is what it looks like:

auto-discovery catalyst device name prtg

Hello,

this was a problem in the Auto-Discovery that occurred when detecting or adding a PING sensor to a device. It should be fixed now in the latest version. We are sorry for any inconveniences caused.

Best Regards.
