No Keith, you have not missed them. As we moved toward WhatsUp Gold 7.0 and allowed a more integration of new vendor devices into the device type library and host file, we addressed this concern. So far we are leaving it open to device vendors to supply their customers with device icons - actually .emf files - that can be put into WhatsUp Gold, and the customer can then create an SCHECK (service check) in the device identification that will promote the device to the type you want. You may want to read more about this in "Customizing Device Types" in the WhatsUp Gold 7.0 Help document. Also, if you don't want to wait for your vendor to supply device icons, try our Vector Device Editor and create your own. Eventually, and it is hoped, that in the future device vendors will see the importance of features like this and supply their customers their own custom built icons for network management applications.

Fulton Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 3:17 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Device Types Are there any device type libraries other than what comes with the WUP product out of the box? I am looking for router, switch and other network equipment devices to put on maps. I see no downloads on the IP Switch site, but may have missed them. Thanks, K. R. Fulton
