World Map Icon Naming

Help
1

Hi All

Is there any way to name each icon I have populated on the World Map? Currently it only shows an IP and I end up having to go into the device to see which one it is. Would be nice to see at a glance.

Any clues?

Thanks,
R

When using IP addresses as a hostname you can instead represent the devices on the WebUI by its SNMP sysName resulting in an easier to read overview of your network. This would apply on networks where you don’t have DNS records for most of your devices.

$config['force_hostname_to_sysname'] = false;

Hi Kevin

After the change it still only shows the IP. Is the sysName you are referring to a name that you specify on the device in the SNMP setup?

Thanks,

Yes if you add a device by IP and using SNMP you need to enable that in order to show the sysname.
