Indeed, the inventory job is unable to complete because 192.168.0.1 is timing out on the requests sent by the dot1q plugin.
If you set the plugin (and the used MIB handlers) to do debug-level logging, we might figure out exactly which request is timing out.
To enable debug logging from the relevant parts, add these lines to the `[levels]` section of `logging.conf`, and restart ipdevpoll:
nav.ipdevpoll.plugins.dot1q = DEBUG nav.mibs.bridge_mib = DEBUG nav.mibs.qbridge_mib = DEBUG
The device could be timing out because of a poor implementation of the SNMP GETBULK operation, in which case you might benefit from reducing the number of `max-repetitions` in `ipdevpoll.conf`.
