"Serial Number Collection Method" option doesn't exist

[Syntax]

Hello,

I'm running cacti 0.8.7g and mactrack 2.9 and I would like to use snmpwalk instead of snmpget for a device types which I'm currently working on. However even if it the option "Serial Number Collection Method" is present in the "MacTrack Device Types" page. It actually doesn´t exist in the Mysql table either in the php code...

Is it for a next version ? or is there already a patch or something for fix this and be able to choose the OID collection method ?

Thx for helping.

Edit: Hum, in fact I figured out that it is snmpwalk which is always used..so it's ok for me. But there is still this problem that people think they can choose between snmpget and snmpwalk, but actually no.

Here is how I implemented the serial number in my modified version of MackTrack. In the db_update_device_status I update the serial_no field. You also need to add the same type information in each of the device type phps (ie cisco, foundry, norbay, cabletron, rapier, ...)
