Hi,

A few things...

Although there is a facility to create your own devices with their unique OIDs. This does not seem to have any effect, as they are still misinterpreted. Not sure how to force it to accept what I tell it.

On the topology map, devices connected in a star are represented in a linear fashion, i.e. Devices 123 are all connected to devices A, but WC shows it as A-1-2-3.

WC seems to have a problem identifying router connectivity. I end up with a few separated networks, instead of one interconnected one. All my WAN links are numbered.

The "Device Types..." setup is to setup a mapping that maps OID to a specific device type.  Once the mappings are entered, you will need to go under Tools->Classify Devices to run the reclassifier.  (Or run discovery again, and it will classify the devices.)

Also, on the right-click context menu for the "Device List View" there is an "Edit Device Category..." option that can be used to locate an existing discovered device and map it (and all other devices with the same OID) to a specific device type.

Hope that helps.
