  2. Select the Device List tab.
    The following information is displayed about the last scan:
     

    Parameter

    Description

    Status

    These fields display the current scan status of the respective target. If the target cannot be scanned, that is, it is not contactable, the status displays Unreachable.

    Device Name

    The fields of this column display the names of the scan targets.

    IP Address

    The IP address of the device in its dotted version, such as 194.50.68.255.

    Operating System Name

    Name The name of the operating system installed on the discovered device.

    NMAPOS

    The field indicates the status of operating system detection via Network Mapper (NMAP). (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    SSH

    The field indicates the status of Secure Shell (SSH) credential validation. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    If the SSH credentials are valid, SSH is used to detect operating system, software, and hardware.

    If the credential validation fails, the SSHOS, SSHSW, and SSHHW tests are not run and the corresponding columns remain empty.

    SMB

    SMB The field indicates the status of Server Message Block (SMB) credential validation. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    If the SMB credentials are valid, SMB is used to detect operating system and software.

    If the credential validation fails, the SMBOS and SMBSW tests are not run and the corresponding columns remain empty.

    WMI

    WMI The field indicates the status of Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) credential validation. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    If the credentials are valid, WMI is used to detect operating system, software, and hardware.

    If the credential validation fails, the WMIOS, WMISW, and WMIHW tests are not run and the corresponding columns remain empty.

    SNMP

    SNMP The field indicates the status of Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) credential validation. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    If the SNMP credentials are valid, SNMP is used to detect operating system, hardware, and network connectivity.

    If the credential validation fails, the SNMPOS, SNMPHW, and SNMPCON tests are not run and the corresponding columns remain empty.

    SSHOS

    SSHOS The field indicates the status of operating system detection via SSH. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    SMBOS

    SMBOS The field indicates the status of operating system detection via SMB. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    WMIOS

    WMIOS The field indicates the status of operating system detection via WMI. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    SNMPOS

    SNMPOS The field indicates the status of oeprating system detection via SNMP. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    SSHSW

    SSHSW The field indicates the status of software detection via SSH. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    SMBSW

    SMBSW The field indicates the status of software detection via SMB. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    WMISW

    WMISW The field indicates the status of software detection via WMI. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    SSHHW

    SSHHW The field indicates the status of hardware detection via SSH. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    WMIHW

    WMIHW The field indicates the status of hardware detection via WMI. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    SNMPHW

    SNMPHW The field indicates the status of hardware detection via SNMP. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    SNMPCON

    SNMPCON The field indicates the status of network connectivity detection via SNMP. (See the legend at the bottom of the table for status information.)

    Detail

    This field displays the latest status of the scan.

    Discovery Time

    This column displays the date and time at which the individual devices were discovered for the first time.

    Start Time

    The date and time at which the scanning session was started on the target client.

    End Time

    The date and time at which the session finished.

    Duration (Sec)

    The the total time the session needed to execute in the regular time format hh:mm:ss.

    MAC Address

    The MAC, that is, the hardware address of the currently discovered device.

    Legends:

    • Yellow (sphere_yellow.png): Operation in progress
    • Red (sphere_red.png): Operation failed
    • Green (sphere_green.png): Operation successful
    • (Empty cell): Operation not performed as the protocol credentials are either not supplied or are invalid.
