From now on, the sysDescr is parsed for the following strings:
- appliance
- firewall
- printer
- router
- sensor
- switch
- ups
- wlc
If one string (foo in this example) is found, the host will discover the host label "cmk/device_type:foo".
Because sysDescr is the only reliable way to get the device type from a snmp device, but not every description contains the strings above, we also have to add device specific host labels via the regarding check plugins. This will be added with further werks.
The implementation takes care, that the device specific host label always wins about the strings in snmp_info and mgmt_snmp_info.
