The Device Information tab provides detailed information returned from SNMP devices discovered on the network. This information helps you view details about each device before adding it to the WhatsUp Gold database.
Note: Device Information varies, dependant upon on the device type and the SNMP information available on the device.
When determining the default display name, WhatsUp Gold polls SNMP objects in the following order: ifAlias (1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.18)
, ifName (1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1)
, ifDesc (1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2)
. If no value is found, the next object is queried until a value is returned.
