Inventory Models

Iotellect Network Manager bundle includes several models that discover detailed device information and assets.

Device Type Detector

This model includes several rule sets each of those checks whether a device belongs to a specific type. The base rule set of this model defines the sequence of calling other rule sets during device type detection algorithm.

Type detection rule sets are configured to work in two "modes":

  • in one case they use SNMP data that is already available in existing device context
  • direct SNMP operations are performed in the other case (which happens during device discovery when device accounts are not yet created)

Device Inventory

This model includes several rule sets for detecting device operating system. The model will be extended in the future Iotellect Network Manager versions to discover more information about resources offered by a network host.
