Scanning of IOS devices?

[AdamBird]

We use Ipod touchs in our business for scanning of orders. Is there some way to include them in the asset scan?

[Daniel_B]

Lansweeper doesn't currently have a scanning agent for iOS devices. This is on our customer wish-list, but no release date is known. Certainly you could use the asset import function in order to get these devices into your database.

We use ipods in our business as well. is there an app that can be written so they can be inventoried?

Lansweeper can only pull data from devices if they have one or more of the following protocols enabled: FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, JetDirect, SIP, SMTP, SNMP (SNMPv1, SNMPv2 or SNMPv3), SSH, Telnet or WMI. As far as we know, iOS devices don't have any of these protocols available, which makes it impossible for Lansweeper to pull data from them.

You can tick Save Pinged IP for your IP ranges to have asset pages generated for all pingable IPs, but no data will be available if none of the aforementioned protocols are enabled.
