Network Maps - labels not updating?

Hi,

Earlier today I created a network map and noticed that some of the configured labels on switches were incorrect, so I went ahead and reconfigured those on the switches.
I then ran an interface name poll and assumed the map would update its link labels. But it did not. The old labels remained.
I ran configuration and topology polls as well, same result.

Do link labels not get updated? Is this a one-off thing that maps do when they create a new connection between devices (i.e. check the interface names, then statically store the current value as part of the connection object itself)?

This is an automated L2 map, so I can of course recreate it, but doing so just because a link label needs an update seems excessive?
Or is that something that's updated as part of housekeeping once a day?

Cheers
