Hello!
1) I've heard that in the future users will be able to create their own
SNMP models. Do you think this feature will be available on next main
version (0.83+1.0)?
Oh no, it's a big work to code this, so not available in 0.83+1.0. I haven't
date for this, except if somebody want to pay for this :)
A specification would be enough for most people able to read a technical
document.
[..]
4) Why net inventory is not implemented stepwise: first get standard
MIB (by default) and then try to get additional information using SNMP
models?
Because oids names not same between 2 mibs, mibs not always ok with firmware...
so not good solution
I seriously doubt any firmware difference for any network device would
change system location variable, or any other similar standard
property... Rather than current 'identified and certified hardware and
firmware combination, you get all available information, otherwise you
get nothing', they are a whole lot of "best effort" alternative
approaches to test, such as:
- if there 'cisco' string in system description is likely to be a
network device
- if this is a cisco device, all other cisco models can be tried until
something reasonable is found
- etc...
As Mario, I'd prefer to cover 80% of the existing world hardware with
80% precision, rather than 20% with 100% precision. Especially without
an authoritative list of those 20%...
