Chapter 6 Managing Inventory Collection and Polling Using Inventory
Generating Inventory Reports
The report contains a different table for each device category based on the Cisco MetaData Framework
(MDF) categorization. Each table summarizes the software information obtained by polling the
class-specific MIB objects on the devices.
To generate the report, see Generating Inventory Reports.
From within the report, you can access any table in the report using the Go to Device category drop-down
list. This list displays all the device categories in the generated report.
For more information about a device in the report, click on the device name or IP address. You will be
directed to Device Center. (For details about Device Center, see the CiscoWorks Common Services
Online Help or User Guide.)
Generating a Detailed Device Report
You can display complete inventory information for selected devices.
The Detailed Device report displays detailed hardware, software characteristics, characteristics
including System, Port Interface, Bridge, Memory Pool, Flash Devices, Image, and physical containment
information, such as Stack, Chassis, Module, Processor information, for one or more selected devices.
Device information is obtained by polling the class-specific MIB objects on the devices that you select.
You can view interface administrative status and slot details for some device classes.
The information shown in this report is based on:
• Physical inventory information (all physical components on the device containment like Stack, Back
Plane, Chassis, module, Power Supplies, Fan, Processor).
• Flash and Memory information.
• Logical Inventory Information (logical aspects such as Interfaces, Bridge Interface, Application
Information).
• System Information (RFC 1213 system information).
• Asset Information (information on Asset Tracking).
The Detailed Device Report also displays the Unique Device Identifier (UDI) for all the components of
a device. UDI is unique to each component of a device. It is a combination of Product Identifier (PID),
Version Identifier (VID) and Serial Number (SN).
Total Memory in the Memory Information table of the Detailed device report is computed as follows:
• For routers that query for processorRam value from Old-Cisco-Chassis-Mib:
Total Memory = Processor memory + I/O memory (buffer memory)
• For all other devices, whenever available from the MIB:
Total Memory = Processor memory.
Note Some data is not displayed, if you have not yet run inventory collection.
