For information about managed and unmanaged devices, see CUDM  Converting Unmanaged Devices to Managed Devices. You can also use the "Unmanaged devices and networks" filter in global search to locate all the unmanaged devices and networks discovered through discovery. For more information, see Using Global Search

...

  • Show IPAM IP Address: Shows the management IP address for the device that has a network in IPAM–the main IPAM tab appears, showing details for the IP address. This option is greyed out for devices that have a management IP that is not part of an IPAM network.

  • Edit: Displays the Device Properties Editor window. Alternatively, you can select the device and click the Edit icon above the devices table. For more information, see Editing Device Properties below.

  • Interfaces: A direct link to the Interfaces page for the chosen device. Unmanaged devices may have managed interfaces that appear in this page, and managed devices may have unmanaged interfaces that appear here. For more information, see Viewing Interface Information for Discovered Devices.

  • Discover Now: Immediately performs discovery on the selected device.

  • Convert: For devices in unmanaged status (shown in yellow), allows conversion of the device to a managed object in Grid Manager: a host, fixed address, A record or PTR record. For more information, see Converting Unmanaged Devices to Managed Devices.

  • IPAM Networks: A drop-down list of all IPv4/IPv6 IPAM networks currently provisioned on the device. Each network provides a link to the IP Map page for the selected network.

  • Device Details: A basic list of information about the chosen device, including the IP address by which the device is discovered, operational status, IPAM Type (whether the device is managed or unmanaged), the Device Type and the number of Interfaces.

  • Click Device Support to verify data collection activities in the following tabs:

    • Data Collection: You can view the timestamp at which the most recent collection from various data sources was completed. The sources from which device support information is collected are listed under the Data Source column, and it includes the device’s routing table (ipRouteTable), environment monitoring (DeviceEnvMon), and numerous other data sources as applicable to the specific device type. It displays the following information for each discovered device:

      • Data Source: The sources from which the device support information was collected.

      • End Time: The most recent timestamp of the data collected by the discovery member.

    • Device Support: Lists various types of information supported for collection on the current device. You can view the following details for each discovered device:

      • Function: Data function that can be collected by Network Insight. The value can be Device VendorDevice ModelDevice VersionVLANsForwardingVRFsInventory, and SecurityControl.

      • Supported: Indicates whether this data function is supported for the selected device. The value can be Yes or No. If it is No, Network Insight will not attempt to gather the data. For instance, for a Cisco router, Network Insight does not attempt to gather VLAN information, so a No value will be displayed in the Supported column.

      • Available: Reflects whether the data has actually been collected. The value can be Yes or No. A value of Yes for Supported and No for Available indicates a discovery misconfiguration or could possibly require an adjustment to the Device Support Bundle (DSB) for that particular device model.

      • Value: Displays the value collected for the Device VendorDevice Model, and Device Version data functions. Displays Last Collected time for the VLANsForwardingVRFsInventory, and Security Control data functions.

  • Show Active Users: Displays the Active Users dialog box. You can view all the active users on the Active Directory domain for the selected device. For more information, see Viewing Active Network Users.
