General Tab

IT Asset Management (Cloud)
This tab enables you to view the general properties of this remote device. Although the tab displays the names of properties for an inventory device, this device is remote, so that by definition no inventory has been collected from it. Therefore the majority of these properties cannot show any values. The following table presents a list of fields on this page in an alphabetical order.
Remember: Remote device properties are read only.
