The Device Manager lacks a column to display the last SNMP working date

The Device Manager includes a column that displays the SNMP working status as either "Yes" or "No." It's crucial to know the duration since SNMP became unreachable when it is not working.

It would be beneficial to add an additional column that indicates the last date/time when SNMP was functioning properly.

Currently, this information is inferred from the Object Manager by examining the last discovery date of an object. The most recent discovery date of any object is considered the last confirmed time when SNMP was operational. However, this date might be more recent if SNMP was functioning but the device discovery was not performed.
