Hi!

Your config looks fine at a first glance except for I have never seen action: used in device_auth... just as a wild guess maybe try without it?

You can also try ND2_LOG_PLUGINS=1 as env var to get some more output from plugin and worker selection, maybe that helps.

Hey,

I've tried it with and without the action:.

Adding env ND2_LOG_PLUGINS=1 provided no additional output here:

[35351] 2025-08-22 10:42:36 debug ⬅ (done) arpnip is able to run
[35351] 2025-08-22 10:42:36 debug //// EARLY \\\\ phase

[35351] 2025-08-22 10:42:36 debug snmp reader cache warm: [ipaddress]

But I didn't know about that, so I will remember it in future thanks.

Failing progress here, I took a look at doing it out-of-band, and then using:

    Submit arpnip results directly to Netdisco by putting the JSON data in a
    file and using the "-p" option (see API web docs for data format
    example):

     ~/bin/netdisco-do arpnip -d 192.0.2.1 -p /tmp/arp-table.json

Which also seems a more recent addition I'd not noticed before.  But while the 
API docs suggest the format for the JSON should be:

[
  { mac => "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff", ip => "A.B.C.D" }
]

I had to write it such:

[
  { mac: "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff", ip: "A.B.C.D" }
]

But it did work!  So that's another interim workaround perhaps.  Still icky.

J.
