Most likely they have been discovered but the oid_to_type and
oid_to_symbol info is not configured correctly.  They will be discovered
in the object and topology database, but NV does not know that it's
really a router.

For starters, you should check the object and topology databases with
ovobjprint and ovtopodump.   Using locate from the GUI and looking for
an IP address or hostname will also help.
