     "A most effective and efficient asset tracking tool
     we have seen none better."

Utilizing an up to date and precise automated IT asset inventory empowers organizations to eliminate time-consuming tasks and have a clear understanding of what IT assets are installed on their networks without substantial investment in software, training and professional services.

autoAsset™ automatically discovers software and devices installed on any IT network and produces valuable asset inventory reports in HTML. Utilizing agent-less technology, the discovery process makes use of existing agents on the network to gather information for the Asset inventory and the HTML Reports.

The asset reports provide valuable information to help reduce maintenance costs and track commercial installed software versions and license requirements.

VoIP pre-deployment is an area where IT asset inventory is essential. autoAsset™ enables a network manager to decide if the network has the routers and switches needed to support VoIP from a QoS engineering and a capacity point of view. autoAsset™ provides reports which not only describe the routers and switches but also identify the switches with free ports.

autoAsset™ assists in network auditing and compliance as well as to enable a network manager to decide if the network has the routers and switches needed to support VoIP from a QoS engineering and a capacity point of view.

autoAsset™ can be deployed as stand alone or with other tools from Codima Toolbox.

• Discovers and reports on devices and software in any infrastructure
• Provides detailed IT asset information
• Establishes if software license limits are exceeded using the Installed Software Report
• Manages security risks and tracks changes by identifying all the devices that were removed or added since the last discovery run
• Make reports available to a wider audience by saving as HTML - ensuring that individual cost centers can review their assets
• Verifies hardware or software upgrades for compliance control and security purposes
• Matches software installed to discovered devices - identifies software that is not allowed on the network, for example non business applications
• Finds "lost" physical and logical assets
• Consolidates switch capacity by checking how many ports are in use
• Shows information on the physical and logical relationships between slots, ports, fans, power supplies etc in the Switch/Router chassis
• Provides inventory for SIP Phones, Servers and Gateways

• Facilitates network auditing and network compliance, improves network planning and efficiency - no need to work with out of date, incomplete, manually obtained information - uses current information obtained directly from network devices
• Ensures accurate IT budgeting - uses real data for budgeting/charging and ordering
• Reduces operating costs - automate the manual tasks of compiling and keeping registers of IT assets up to date
• Helps control maintenance fees - provides an up to date and precise inventory

• Supports over 4,600 device types, over 8,000 NIC vendors and over 30,000 vendor codes - the list is constantly updated

• Codima Discovery Engine™ uses the following protocols in the discovery process:
• SNMP, SIP, NetBIOS, ICMP and rDNS, as well as proprietary vendor protocols such as WMI, CDP or EDP. Use of common and universal protocols makes the discovery agent-less.
• Supports Multiple SNMP Read communities across the network
• Supports Japanese Character Encoding
• Provides user control of discovery parameters:
• Allowed and Prohibited IP Address range can be configured
• Bandwidth limits can be set from 64Kbs to 640Kbs
• Provides for discovery across firewalls

• Microsoft® Windows Vista, XP or Server 2003 with 2GHz CPU (minimum)
• 516Mb RAM (minimum)

• Adds the ability to automatically generate Network Topology Drawings directly with Microsoft® Office Visio®

• Adds Analyzing and Troubleshooting for any Infrastructure in Real time with Remote Management and Network Visualization

• Adds Monitoring and Troubleshooting for VoIP networks with easy to use One-Click Management™

• Adds Monitoring, Displaying and Analyzing VoIP networks with Frame Flow analyzer and RTP analyzer and is available for laptop PC
