Resolution

Is it possible to change the default classification of ICMP only devices?

ICMP only devices show up by default as a Host.  In some cases you may want to change this classification to something more specific for instance Router or WirelessAccessPoint.

Because the default systemClass is defined as "Host" in SMARTS code

Example:
const CI_String AD_Manager::DefaultSystemClass = "Host";

This will require a code change in Smarts.
