1. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to cause a processor of a network management entity to perform a process, wherein the network management entity stores data from a number of electronic network devices that are on a network managed by the network management entity, said data specifying a number of attributes of each network device, the process comprising:

  • accessing an age criterion associated with a data set corresponding to a particular network device on the network managed by the network management entity;

    determining a previous refresh time associated with the data set;

    defining a next refresh time that satisfies the age criterion and is determined relative to the previous refresh time; and

    scheduling a request to the corresponding network device from the network management entity for data to update the data set for that corresponding network device, the request being scheduled at the next refresh time.
