Hi Stuart,
I think the problem is, that a Macwalk and Discoverall will not bring the
desired outcome.
You have to add at least one device which utilizes lldp (CDP, FDP, etc...) to
autodiscover other devices.
Otherwise you have to insert all devices in a crontab.
Best regards

Hi Stuart
I agree with Dominik. Looking a the logs from your earlier emails, these
are relevant:
[18523] 2019-09-08 11:22:21 debug [10.1.2.3:161] try_connect with ver: 2,
new class: SNMP::Info::Layer3::NetSNMP, comm: <hidden>
in the above line we see that the device is only being identified as a
generic system, and results would be better if there were an SNMP::Info
specific class for the device model (e.g. Layer3::C6500). Can you share the
device/model being discovered?
[18523] 2019-09-08 11:22:21 debug [10.1.2.3] interfaces - added 1 new
interfaces
Surprising that there is only one interface on this switch/router, or is it
a server or VM?
[18523] 2019-09-08 11:22:21 debug [10.1.2.3] neigh - neighbor protocols
are not enabled
And finally, here is where Dominik mentions the CDP/FDP/LLDP needing to be
enabled. They are protocols for walking the network from device to device.
Perhaps reading this will help:

Good luck!
