Hi!

For most devices, getting VLAN list requires reading of proprietary MIBs. In NetXMS 1.1.x, we introduce concept of network device drivers - server modules which handle vendor-specific things for network devices. Currently we only have drivers for Avaya (former Nortel) Ethernet switches and some Cisco switches and routers. You can check what driver is selected for a device by looking at "Driver" line on overview page. If "GENERIC" driver is selected for device, that means that there are no vendor-specific support for it.

Best regards,
Victor
