Since I am a bit of NOOB to SW, I have an upcoming project to refresh a large number of Cisco switches. What I am wondering is if NPM will detect and discover the new hardware. I am planning on keeping the IP address the same on the switches. Just down the stack, pull the cables, and swap out the hardware, re-attach cables. I do not want to have to manually tell SW that I changed the hardware nor do I want to have to remove the device and then re-add the device. Can someone provide some guidance?

if switch hardware changes but IP remains the same, will NPM detect it correctly
