Networking report per Netpoint in cascading environment

First of all a congratulations for 0.65, great improvements e.g. for the Ticketing / Helpdesk section.
So far, everything works fine here, combined with ocsinventory.

I have the following question:
In some (training) rooms, I have 15 PCs connected to an outlet (netpoint) by using three cascaded eight port switches. I would expect, that a networking report of this netpoint would contain all connected networking devices, not only the first switch, directly connected to the outlet.

Did I misconfigure something, or do I have a wrong understanding of these items?

I am using 0.65RC1, Switches have been entered as Networking devices, their ports have been added (1-8) and "connected" like: Netpoint -> Sw1/P1 : Sw1/P8 -> Sw2/P1 : Sw2/P8 -> Sw3/P1  (where "Sw" means Switch and "P" means Port...)

Thanks & Greetings from Vienna,

Christof

Re: Networking report per Netpoint in cascading environment

actually networking reports do only a 1 step display.
Cascading is not done is these reports.
I add your request to our to do list.
