| Model | The manufacturer's model name and number of the device. |
| Device Type | The type of networking device, categorized by NetMRI or Network Insight ("Switch," "Switch-Router," "Router," "Firewall," and so on). |
| OS/Firmware | This field lists the OS/Firmware Versions that have been Verified based on the Device Model and Version support levels described above. If the field is blank, no specific versions have been verified, and the device model, family, or series must be treated as Recognized Best Effort as described above. |
| Capabilities | Provides three key sets of data for each listed device: SNMP: Successful collection of most inventory and discovery-related information. Not all SNMP data types are supported on all devices; PortControl: A "Y" in this column indicates that the Infoblox product supports this device for VLAN assignment, setting a port to administratively Up/Down, and defining an interface Description. In cases where the device does not allow all three settings to be changed, the record for that device indicates the allowed settings in this field. Config Management (NetMRI only): This column indicates the protocols that NetMRI can use to collect the device configuration. The possible supported protocols are SSH, Telnet, and HTTP. In cases where the device allows or supports only specific protocols for data collection, the record for that device indicates it in this field. |
