Understanding And Using Device Inventory In Nagios Network Analyzer

Overview

Device Inventory in Nagios Network Analyzer 2026R2.1+ enables you to cultivate a directory of devices on your network, and optionally assign an Alias to them for easy identification. You can add devices to your inventory manually, or use the results of Nmap scans. There is also an ARP discovery daemon which can be used to discover devices detect network changes, and alert on them.

Your inventory can also be cross-referenced when viewing Sources, Nmap, Suricata, and Wireshark data (see the related guides for full details).
