This feature helps you confirm that a device detected on your network aligns with the vendor recorded in your asset inventory. It reduces the risk of mismatches caused by outdated records, device swaps, or unauthorized hardware.
This feature enables you to validate whether a device present on your network matches the vendor listed in your asset inventory. It supports routine asset verification by comparing observed device identity indicators to the vendor information you have recorded. You can use it when onboarding new devices to ensure the inventory entry accurately reflects what is actually deployed. It is also useful during audits to identify discrepancies between network-observed devices and inventory records. By highlighting mismatches, it helps you detect potential device replacements, misclassified assets, or unauthorized devices. The feature can be applied to individual devices during troubleshooting or across many devices during periodic inventory hygiene. It improves trust in inventory data, which supports downstream workflows such as procurement reconciliation, lifecycle tracking, and compliance reporting. It also helps reduce time spent manually checking device labels, purchase records, or configuration notes to confirm vendor details. Over time, using this feature promotes more accurate asset records and faster investigation when inconsistencies appear.
