Using DMI

As a part of the LANDesk Client Manager, the Desktop Management Interface (DMI) is
the standard interface used to manage system components on the computer. Examples of
system components are network interface cards, printers, and software applications. System
components provide a Management Information Format (MIF) file to be DMI-compliant.
The information file describes component attributes that can be managed.
Client Manager can be used to "get" attribute information on system components. It can
also be used to "set" attribute values in real time.
