What do you want to do with the data? Do you want to have counts? Are you trying to create ERISources and TopologySources so that you can map it out? What's the goal? Is it troubleshooting?
FWIW: When you do a poll now, you can see the entire output of the script. Script output can contain more than what is parsed. So, if you have a datasource that pulls the data and does track some sort of numerical data, but also outputs the MAC table, you could do that and the MAC table would only be displayed when the Poll Now button is used. Technically, it would be included in the output every time the script ran, but only the part of the output that matches the scripted collection output format gets properly parsed. The rest is ignored. I've used this technique in the past to actually have the exact same script run discovery and collection. Every time it runs, it outputs both the discovery output and the collection output. When running for discovery, the collection output is ignored by LM. When running for collection, the discovery part is ignored by LM.
