Whenever a node in opConfig or opEvents is refreshed/imported from NMIS, all of NMIS' node properties are also transferred. These properties are currently not used by opConfig or opEvents, but will show up when you export a node using opnode_admin. Your opEvents and opConfig policies can make use of these properties, you can edit them with opnode_admin (and, to some extent, via the GUI if you modify the configuration variables opevents_gui_node_summary_list and/or opconfig_gui_node_summary_list).
