Device Scanner

Device Scanner provides highly sophisticated, in-depth monitoring of your supported SNMP physical

layer devices. Like the Device Crawlers, Device Scanner enables you to configure your devices devices

to monitor the general status information of SNMP targets. However, the number of SNMP devices that

can be monitored using Device Scanners is far higher (up to a maximum of 1025 SNMP devices) and the

amount of device-specific sensor and device status data that is surfaced and accessible when using Device

Scanner far exceeds that which is available using the Device Crawlers scanning and reporting

architecture.

Using the Device Scanner Task

Instructions for using the Device Scanner task follow.

The SNMP Targets View

To define a new SNMP target (or modify a previously defined SNMP target) for use with Device

Scanner:

1. Launch the Device Scanner task. In addition to the IP address/hostname and status of each selected

device, the Device Scanner task's device selection window also includes one task-specific

information column: Target Count, which displays the total number of SNMP targets that have been

defined for each device.

2. To continue, select one device from the device selection window and click Edit.

3. The Device Scanner Settings window opens. This window consists of three panes:

– The SNMP Targets pane: Enables you to add, edit, or remove SNMP targets for use with Device

Scanner.

– The Device Definition Files pane: Displays the names and versions of all Device Definition Files

(DDFs) that are currently installed on the selected device, and enables you to download and

install new or updated DDFs as they become available.

Note

The Device Scanner task can be run only on one device at a time.
