    I took the PM teams suggestion with the customer and asked the customer to correlate the Velo Edge devices using the IP address of the VCE device in netreo with the device list they have in their Inventory system, But from research and looking at the customer environment it was determined that:

    1. The VCE "mgmt" IP address is going to be a deprecated field.

    2. Also, the customer's 2500+ VCE devices are not configured with MGMT IP, hence they aren't able to use it to compare the device list from Netreo and push the custom attributes for each of the VCE device.

    The only way to solve this issue is to enable netreo to show the VCE ID of each of the VCE devices in a report so that the customer can compare the device list in Netreo and push the attributes accordingly.
