    I will add that we have been told by Paessler support that if a description is not present in the SNMP OID on initial SNMP Traffic sensor creation then future description updates on the device will not work without deleting the SNMP Traffic sensor and adding it back again. We don't understand why this logic is necessary and much rather prefer to always scan for description from the device and update PRTG's sensor if it's different in PRTG.

    I will also add that interface status (up or down administratively or operationally) should not have any bearing on this feature. PRTG should always poll and update regardless of interface status.
