Ditto. Same here after upgrading HA 7100's from 22.05 to 23.01.

- Subject changed from Error messages from snmpd on boards with in-built switches to SNMP logs "Device not configured" error message when queries involve built-in switch port interfaces
- Category changed from SNMP to Interfaces
- Assignee set to Luiz Souza
- Target version set to 23.05

This appears to be the same as #8600 and to fix it then, we suppressed that error.

I have the same on my Netgate 7100. Hope there is a fix soon because this ** is flooding mit logs :/

The last time we fixed this appears to be in src commit b33b6cb8a704be9c4053ca4f050357cd9eb0a13d (Internal link: https://gitlab.netgate.com/pfSense/FreeBSD-src/-/commit/b33b6cb8a704be9c4053ca4f050357cd9eb0a13d ) but that diff doesn't pick cleanly onto a current tree, so may need some adapting. It was a one-line change, though, so hopefully simple.

It looks like this would be a current equivalent change:

syslog(LOG_WARNING, "SIOCGIFDESCR (%s): %m", ifp->name);
} else if (irr.ifr_buffer.buffer == NULL) {

But someone more familiar with the code than I should look that over first.
