Thank you for your feedback
Dynamic device attribute pollers are used in device types and device subtypes to collect data from managed devices in Netreo.
The value returned by this poller is added as a key:value pair to a managed device's attributes. This allows attributes to be easily added to managed devices dynamically; rather than needing to do it manually for each device.
Configuration Settings
- DEVICE ATTRIBUTE NAME/TITLE - The user-supplied name for the attribute. This value becomes the name (key) value for the attribute key:value pair.
- TARGET OID - The OID to query. This OID is queried during each discovery poll of the managed device. The OID queried is expected to return a single value. If a table OID is supplied, only the first returned value is used. The returned value becomes the value for the attribute key:value pair.
Caution
Only one instance of an attribute name is allowed per managed device. If an attribute already exists for a given managed device with the same name as one supplied in a dynamic device attribute poller, that attribute will be overwritten by the one from the poller, even if the OID supplied fails to return a value.
