LMS 2.5.1 ANI devices discovery and hostname

[ppoiron]

On my LMS 2.5.1, ANI discovers devices with their DNS names.

I would like to have the system Name in the DCR instead of the DNS Name which is not the same.

In the discovery settings, I have :

- Use reverse DNS lookup

- Resolve by SysName

- Resolve by Name

If I don't set reverse DNS lookup, devices are discovered only by IP address.

I tried modify DevicesDiscovery.properties file to let only resolveBySysName and ResolveByName without success.

For informations, LMS discovers cdp neighbours with their DNS names and if you telnet on devices, the show cdp nei shows neigbours with their system name.

Has anybody an idea to fix this issue ?

Thanks in advance,

Patrice
