Add SNMP location in the device name?

Votes:

0

Hi everyone, I need to add some device to PRTG. Every device has an hostname and ip plus the SNMP location. I would like to have it added directly to the name the name of the device so the the result is hostname (ip) [SNMP Location]

There is some way to do that?

auto-discovery location snmp

Hi there,

This is not possible I'm afraid. There is no way to use field names as device name. It is only possible to use this for sensor names. Please take a look for this here.

Kind regards
