OCS Inventory NG use an agent which launch an inventory on the clients computers, and a management’s server which retrieve the inventory results. You will be able to see all inventoried data, detected network devices and finally create deployment packets from the webconsole. The communication between the agents and the server are made with the HTTP and HTTPS procotol. Data are formatted with XML and Zlib to reduce the bandwidth usage. The management’s server is composed of :
| TYPE | Physical machine/Virtual machine |
| LOGICS DISKS / PARTITIONS | Drive letter assignment, Type (USB, hard disk, cd-rom, network, RAM…), File system (FAT, FAT32, NTFS, EXT4 …), capacity in MB, free space in MB. |
| OPERATING SYSTEMS | Detailed system informations, Users Informations, Registered company, Registered Owner, Registered Product (ID) |

Network discoverHardware discovery take place in two steps
In the first place, the IP search module detects the hardware on the network, even equipped with a firewall. Once an agent has received the order to proceed the IP scan, it identifies the first network interface to use. He try to resolve all other IP address in the subnet using the ARP protocol. All the IP scan data are sent to the server (XML format).
In a second time, SNMP scan (function added in OCS Inventory NG 2.0) will improve data received by IP discover. Using SNMP scan, you’ll be able to get informations from network devices : scanner, computer without agent, router, etc.
This feature is only available on Unix unified agent. He will be implemented on Windows Agent of OCS Inventory 2.2.
