ipdevpoll inventory job is consistently crashing on a couple of Cisco routers on a client installation, with the following traceback:

[Morten Brekkevold (mbrekkevold)]

It seems NAV ships with a 2008-revision of the CISCO-ENTITY-FRU-CONTROL-MIB where the cefcFRUPowerStatusTable has only three columns.

The router in question was recently upgraded to the latest available IOS version, and provides at least 5 columns in this table (which is specified in the newest revision of CISCO-ENTITY-FRU-CONTROL-MIB). This error occurs because NAV expects the response to have only 3 columns and cannot find a reference to the fourth received column in its MIB.

Solution should be to simply ship NAV with a newer version of the MIB.
