Unamanaged devices - why do they keep adding up all over again?

Hi.

GLPI Inventory detects an unmanaged device across the network - that's good.

He adds them to the appropriate assets card - good.

But why doesn't he stop, he just adds them again... and again... and again...

It's normal? How to prevent it?

Re: Unamanaged devices - why do they keep adding up all over again?

This is an issue I've been trying to investigate as well; in some cases devices get added to 'Unmanaged Devices' even when there is an existing device (for instance some of my network switches are in 'Network Devices' and 'Unmanaged Devices', this also happens with access points and devices detected as 'Hubs'). I'm on GLPI 10.0.3 with GLPI Inventory Plugin 1.0.4, also running on Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS.

Hi

Does anyone have any information?

Only me and cplw have this problem?

Does it just bother us?

Why is there no verification if such an unmanaged device is already listed, and if so - ignore the import?
