If an SNMP device reported an IP address entry that is not a valid IPv4 address with netmask (seen on KEMP load balancers), the HW/SW inventory of the device lost all its IP addresses, and the crash report showed ValueError: ... does not appear to be an IPv4 or IPv6 interface.

Such an entry is now skipped and all other IP addresses of the device are inventorized.
