The recognition works correct but not in the following situation where the wrong network interface data is checked.

  • Use desciption or use alias is configured in the ruleset Network Interface and Switch Port Discovery.
  • Two or more network interfaces exist with same description or alias.
  • Only one network interface with this description or alias is discovered.
  • The discovered network interface does not rank first.

Now the index is attached if an alias or description exists at least twice.
