    The main panel in the center of the console window shows the graphical device maps and generated reports, graphs and charts. Clicking on a subnet icon brings up a new window, which displays all the discovered devices, each color-coded by status, and a small indicator showing if the device was discovered using SNMP or ICMP polling--regular features associated with any good network-monitoring system.
