Hi Ricardo
I don't think there is any support for custom extension fields
currently. What you could do with existing stuff in Netdisco is a
discover hook that takes the remote_type and tacks it onto an existing
field like the interface description. This is of course not the pinnacle
of the third normal form of database design, but it should be in reach
of a couple lines of Perl/SQL :)
General hook documentation:
https://github.com/netdisco/netdisco/wiki/Hooks
I've already made a hook once that does some twiddling in device_port
post-discovery, might be a starting point:

Cheers
Christian

I've asked before back in March on how to get phone extensions via LLDP
but it seems that you would need discover_phones enabled, and iour
phones do not have SNMP enabled.
In any case, the information is getting pulled as part of the
"remote_type" - Is there a way to map the contents (and ideally a
substring) into a custom field that can be displayed and/or searched for?
Doing a discover -DIQ you can see remote_type includes the necessary
information: "reqDN 1177" whereas 1177 is the phone's extension. If we
can do this, we could map the model number of the phone as well
"MINET_6920" whereas 6920 is the model.
