The algorithm for selecting the canonical IP/name of a device has changed in
this release. No longer is the OSPF Router ID taken into account. The default
IP/name of a device will be either the IP specified for manual discovery, or
the IP reported to a neighbor port during automatic discovery. For the latter
you can often influence this through device configuration (LLDP advertise...).
Via configuration there are two further settings. C<reverse_sysname> tells
Netdisco to take the SNMP System Name and do a reverse DNS lookup for the
canonical IP. The new configuration setting C<device_identity> allows you to
set rules for picking the canonical interface from a device based on any of
its properties (model, vendor, OS, OS version, etc).
Typical use would be either to leave Netdisco to use the discovered IP, or use
C<device_identity> to control the canonical IP/name for classes of device
based on model/vendor, etc.
