Device SNMP: Order by OID

Hi support,

in Device SNMP type it could be useful to have OID ordered by A-Z instead of randomized.

    I'd upvote this 1000 times if I could. Sorting by OID A-Z would be good but I would love to order them manually. Especially when importing a template or from another device and the OIDs show up randomly is aweful.

    I can not begin to tell you how frustrating it is dealing with SNMP templates. Why would they show up in random order, an order that may change from day to day or hour to hour. Who would do something like that and say, "yup, that's what I wanted"?
    It is imperative that sort order gets fixed on these templates. When there are many OIDs, it NEEDs to be in the order I say, not some random order.
    I believe the ideal should be that:
    a) Template order is the same as order entered. This means that what I see when initially making the template is how it will show on device.
    b) OIDs in both the "OIDs Values" area and the "Monitored OIDs" area need to be re-arranged as required.
    c) Sort by column or some other sort mechanism.

    We create templates in order to make all devices of a given device type and model the same.
    For example, EVERY TIME I use the template I created for MS810 Printer, IT MUST display (among other things), Toner max impressions followed by Toner remaining impressions, IN ORDER. When you re-arrange things, it means that everyone looking at it needs to read the OID and determine what each value refers to, rather than having every MS810 different.

    Currently, your SNMP templates are next door to useless.

    I have asked for this at least once previously (before you moved this to UserVoice)

    Yes, I would like the ability to manually order OID's or have them be able to be sorted by OID # or description when creating templates at least. Curranty they will only show in the order that they are entered with no way to reorder other than removing all of them and then entering them in the order that you want.

    Voted, similar idea to mine. Allow us to manually sort the OID's.

    If you import a shared template against a device, the OID order is lost (randomised) resulting in an untidy and potentially confusing layout.
