Device Management by Type

Whatever the type of device you have in your or your customer's infrastructure, netPrefect™ has the ability to manage it either directly using one of the supported protocols, or, through one of our pre-defined management Packs that consist of the rules and reports required to monitor your device and proactvely inform you, via alerts, when conditions exist that are sub-optimal and/or reducing the effectiveness of your infrastucture to satisfy your business needs.

Device Management by Protocol

netPrefect™ manages your infrastructure devices via one or more of their native protocols. Using these protocols, netPrefect is able to either receive unsolicited data, or proactively request information from the managed devices. Using the data received from the managed device netPrefect™ can then either determine the status of the device, log statistical information contained within the data to be used for reporting later, or both.

Take a closer look at the ways in which we are able to manage your devices as well as some of the more common items that netPrefect™ is used to monitor for particulare device types.

Many of these are provided "out-of-the-box" by the product in both software and appliance form.
