Add network devices

Alert: Cisco has made the end-of-life (EOL) announcement for the Cisco Industrial Asset Vision (IAV).

Your role should have the required permission to perform this action.

To add a Network Device:

  1. From the left pane, click Inventory > Network Devices.
  2. From the right pane, click Add Network Device, complete the following fields and click Add.
Field Description
Type Select IXM or LoRaWAN PIM from the drop-down list.
Name The name for the Network Device.
Select PID Number Select an option from the drop-down list.
Serial Number The unique 11-digit number.

The network devices page shows the list of assets filtered based on the Organization Hierarchy level that is selected. Only the levels accessible to the currently logged-in user are shown in bold text. Selecting a specific level in the hierarchy will filter the data and widget values of the network devices present under that hierarchy level and all of its child levels. The filtered network devices are displayed in the right pane of the page. If you select the Global level, then, all the network devices present for the tenant will be listed and the widget values are updated accordingly. The number next to a level is the Active Alerts count(associated with all network devices, if any) for that level which by default shows the aggregated alerts count (count of alerts on that level and the levels below). If you want to see only counts for the specific organization level, then, you click Settings located on the top of the organization hierarchy and select Local Alerts under Number Display. The Organization Hierarchy pane can be collapsed. The network devices page shows all the network devices present in the inventory. The Network Devices count displays the count of total records, active and inactive records. The alerts card shows the count of alerts associated with the network devices.
