Name Devices by Vendor-ID (MAC)

Votes:

1

Hello,

is it possible to automatically name a device (e.g. Zebra Printer) by identifying the vendor via the MAC address? Alternatively, could I name a device by SNMP-Strings, like the Model?

Thanks!

auto-discovery mac-address name vendorid

Hi Till,

I'm afraid that this is not possible in the current version of PRTG. There is an open feature request for this, you can upvote the feature here.

Kind regards,
