  • 1.  CAPC 3.7.4 Override Device Types - Not changing type!

    Posted Sep 23, 2019 03:45 PM
    Hi all,

    I've got a set of Meraki MR42 and MR34 Wireless APs in my CAPC 3.7.4 and have adjusted the devicetypes.xml as per the documentation: Override Device Types

    I edited the /opt/IMDataAggregator/data/custom/devicetypes/DeviceTypes.xml to contain (and remembered to uncomment the section!):

    <!-- To map system OIDs to Wireless Access Point device type, use <WirelessAccessPoints> followed by <sysObjectID>. -->
    <WirelessAccessPoints>
    <sysObjectID>1.3.6.1.4.1.29671.2.17</sysObjectID> <!-- MR34 -->
    <sysObjectID>1.3.6.1.4.1.29671.2.22</sysObjectID> <!-- MR42 -->
    </WirelessAccessPoints>

    Then I ran a rediscover of the devices but they remain as "Other". The OID is correct as reported by the devices:


    What am I missing?

    Thanks in advance. JB.

    This came up just the other day.

    The following should help resolve this.
