Interface Description always empty

[colthouse]

I setup orb and used it with snmp. It seemed to work mostly, however the description for interfaces was always empty.

I deleted those three lines recompiled the snmp-discovery backend and replaced the binary in my docker image. It worked perfectly afterwards:

I'm happy to provide more info if needed

I will migrate this ticket to orb-agent repo to make it easier for us to track it.

@colthouse can you share your agent config file? anonymized data if needed.

It's been a long while and I can't really remember what I was doing back then. I'm pretty sure this was the config I was using back then
