Device Inventory

The Device Inventory page gives you an overview of the total number of network devices in you network based on the following family types

• Unified AP's
• Wireless Controllers
• Routers
• Switches and Hubs

You can interact with the pie chart and also tap into it to get a deeper insight about the devices in your network and their reachability state.

Assurance tab

The Assurance Tab uses a variety of assurance related API's to show you the current health of both your overall network and network devices.

The assurance tab has a variety of features demoing the capabilities of the API's.

The Client Health represents the overall client health of your system currently. This includes elements such as the health of the wired and wireless clients in your system for example.

The Network Health located on the top right represents the health of monitored devices across your network such as the core switches, routers or distribution switches.

The picker view located in the centre makes a call to the site hierarchy API to gather data on the sites within the system, their type and their overall network device health score.

The horizontal bar chart located at the bottom of the screen is representative of the Network Health. It shows the current health of each family based on a percentage out of 100. For example, we can see that there are issues with wireless network devices.
