Add-Ons: Advanced Device Crawlers
Advanced Device Crawlers is a license key-enabled enhancement to Device Crawlers that greatly
extends your ability to monitor the operational status of your SNMP targets. Advanced Device
Crawlers extends the capabilities of Basic Device Crawlers to provide far more detailed device-
specific information and to enable OID-specific monitoring and alerting.

OID-Specific Monitoring
Advanced Device Crawlers provides two methods by which you can monitor individual OIDs on
your SNMP targets:
your SNMP targets:
• Selecting OIDs surfaced using Device Definition Files
• Manually adding individual supplemental OIDs
Device Description Files (provided and periodically updated by NetBotz) make it quick and easy to
monitor the environmental and physical data reported by some supported SNMP devices. Identifying
and monitoring a device’s individual OIDs can be a painstaking process. MIBs can contain thousands
of individual OIDs, and most of these are of little or no interest or use for monitoring purposes.
Device Description Files make it simple to monitor the environmental and physical data reported on
supported devices by automatically surfacing the OIDs that report data that is pertinent to
environmental monitoring, making the process of monitoring the condition of these devices far
simpler.

If you want to monitor the values reported by OIDs on SNMP targets for which Device Definition
Files is not available, Advanced Device Crawlers also enables you to manually add supplemental
OID data which can then be monitored.

Enhanced Environmental Monitoring
Advanced Device Crawlers greatly enhance the functionality of Device Crawlers by giving far more
access to the environmental monitoring data that is stored in the MIBs of your SNMP targets. This is
accomplished in two ways:

sensor set named Advanced Details.

• Enabling monitoring of any user-specified and defined supplemental OIDs on an SNMP target
Enhanced Alert Notification
In addition to enhancing your ability to gather SNMP-based data from your SNMP targets, Advanced
Device Crawlers enables you to generate alert notifications when monitored OID values change.
Using both the Device Definition Files and the Supplemental OID functionality, you can extend your
environmental monitoring and notification abilities to include environmental conditions in and
around all of your SNMP targets as well as those around your appliances.
