Cisco Wireless Access Controller - Device Type

[Bob Mullineaux]

Discovery of Wireless Access Points via the Cisco WAPs Network Switch Pattern extension seems to be auto-populating the device_type field with a invalid sys_choice value wireless_access_point.  I cannot locate where this value is being populated.  It seems not to be in the pattern, a BR or dictionary default.  

Any ideas how and where this wireless_access_point value is being populated on the CIs?

Hi @Bob Mullineaux,

It is set in Pre Sensor Script "WAPs - Pre" under menu "Pattern Designer->Pre Post Processing".

Hello @SiD2 ,

Please could you help on what classes are populating the Device Type Field , we would like to have this populated for Switches , Routers , Firewalls through to any other devices as applicable.

Thanks !!

Hi @Saurav 

Actually OOB apart from WAP CI nowhere we see this populated but this field is available on the parent CI class "Network Gear", so you can create extensions and populate this field on CI classes that derive from this.
