Mis-classification of hardware

The network discovery task of glpi-agent 1.5 (nightly) classifies the iDRACs of our Dell servers as Networking equipment. Is this a bug or can I correct his by some rule?

Re: Mis-classification of hardware

Hi GuidoLondon,

how would you think that iDRACS should be classified ?

IMHO, even if they are embedded in a server, they are network equipment.

Re: Mis-classification of hardware

Yes I was thinking the same thing. Somehow they are their own kind of thing aren't they?
But maybe they are best placed in Networking. I suppose you at Teclib have discussed this previously.
In librenms they get classified as Appliances which again I do not think is the correct term, but if you ask me I also do not know what the correct place would be.
