Details
After a device is discovered, its details are listed in ZENworks
information available for a discovered device. For example, if the SNMP information is not
available for a discovered device, then the SNMP Information panel is not displayed.
If the discovered information for a device is incorrect or insufficient, administrators with the Edit
Discovered Device rights can manually change the details for the fields that have the Edit button
next to them. However, except for the Asset information, manually updated information is
overwritten with the discovered information when a discovery is run again for the same IP address.
You can view the following information about the discovered device:
Discovery Information: Displays the identification information, device type, discovery
process status, deployment process status, mode of the discovery, and network type of the
device.
Network Information: Displays the IP address, MAC address, and DNS name of the device.
Management Information: Displays the Adaptive Agent version and Management Zone
name. For a managed device that belongs to the same zone from which a discovery is run, you
can also view the Summary page and hardware and software inventory information of the
associated managed device.
These details are displayed for managed devices only.
Asset Information: Displays the description, manufacturer, model, serial number, and asset
tag number of the device.
For routers, hubs, and switches, the number of ports and firmware revision details are also
displayed.
For printers, the number of pages and firmware revision details are displayed. For information
on printer alerts and supply levels, you need to install ZENworks Reporting Server and use the
predefined discovery reports or create custom reports. For more information, see
"Viewing the Predefined Reports," on page
