this has bothered me for a while now...

Alcoma devices do not have LLDP functionality (confirmed with system developer) and does not appear on Network Maps.

But in the event : "Include end nodes" turned on + one device in Alcoma pair goes offline = Alcoma shows on the map.
On top of it, the device also shows information about network peers in the Interface tab, but as soon as the offline device is back online this information disappears.

My questions would be

• how comes the network peers information is removed when the pair node goes back online
• is it possible somehow define devices without LLDP functionality to be acknowledged and incorporated by the Automatic Network Map process ?

The information about the peer takes into account only network interface of the device so I wouldnt mind these device pairs not being connected, just showing as end nodes at the correct place would be sufficient.

With regards,
