Rouge ghost device showing in firmware page - OCD kicking in!!

[SjP]

A few years ago, we were testing some sensors but ended up not perusing this tech, so we removed them from our inventory. While the device no longer shows in inventory, it still shows up in our Firmware page as an option to upgrade its firmware. My OCD is in overdrive trying to find out how to remove it and for the life of me I cannot seem too. 

Seeking help so I can sleep peacefully again.....

By any chances , do you have any combined networks that would also contain Sensors ?

[SjP]

Absolutely no sensors in our network anywhere.....😕

Split the network, delete the one that ends with - environmental, recombine the network.

Awesome, that worked!! Best sleep ever coming tonight...thanks

Are there any risks associated with splitting and recombining networks?  Like losing firewall settings, DHCP settings, VLAN settings, etc.?

I haven't done it a lot - maybe half a dozen times.  It has always worked for me.

This document has two sections, combining and then splitting networks.

Find something even more cosmetically annoying, and then the sensor issue won't seem so bad.  🙂

I have the same problem with MX showing in one network that no longer has an MX, I just ignore it.

I have worked out I can't be to picky with Meraki otherwise I would end up spending hours manually correcting device types on the Network-wide > clients page.

Ryan's fix of splitting, deleting the appliance Network, then recombining, would work for you too @BlakeRichardson
