SNMP Interface Naming

LM discovers the interfaces as instances which is normal. What I would like to do is change the name of the interfaces to include either the description or override it with a custom property

E.g. current 

SNMP_Network_Interfaces-GigabitEthernet1/0/11 [ID:10111]

To

SNMP_Network_Interfaces-GigabitEthernet1/0/11 [ID:10111] - Interrface Description
Or
SNMP_Network_Interfaces-GigabitEthernet1/0/11 [ID:10111] - [Custom Property Text]

Reason: I really want to have circuit Id's in the instance naming convention. Is this even possible?

    You can edit the datasource itself to do what you are asking. Below is what is in the datasource. You could move the description call out into the name area.

    // Current Line
println "${ifIndex}##${ifEntry.description} [ID:${ifIndex}]##${description}####${ifEntry.collect { it.key.contains("predef") ? "${it}" : "auto.interface.${it}" }.join("&")}"
