We do have different strings on our network equipment but servers and other
devices are being discovered via the SNMP Scan. I tried to discover our core
data center network which I know does not have over 1800 networking devices.
So, somehow, servers and other 'things' were discovered. Is this a bug or
something? 

Thanks,
Chris
