Assigning VRF Pollers

Resolution

You can go to List Resources on the node and check the box for Virtual Routing and Forwarding.
If the resource is not listed it is possible that we do not yet support polling this device for VRF information.

Alternatively you can manually add the pollers to nodes with the following steps:

Go to Settings > Manage Pollers.
Search for Virtual Routing and Forwarding.
Select Virtual Routing and Forwarding and click Assign.
Check the NODES to assign it to and click Enable poller.

If you device does not report VRF information with the OIDs the Poller is assigned for you will still not get any information and will need to submit a feature request to get the VRF information from your device.
