Device Type Maintenance
Use this screen to maintain Device Types. Use
Device Types to differentiate your individual
IP addresses by function, type, or role. For example, you may want to distinguish between
printers, routers, or standard laptops. This powerful feature enables the Cisco Prime Network
Registrar IPAM engine to distinguish between different types of devices when creating default
