Getting Started

When you first start the program you need to add computers of your network to the list.

    Network Asset Tracker Pro provides three ways to scan your network:
  • Enumerate network for all computers;
  • Add computers by domain;
  • Add computers by range of IP addresses.

Also, you can add computers to the list manually one-by-one.

Enumerate network for all computers

Network Asset Tracker Pro enables you to scan all available computers on your network with just one click.

    To enumerate all computers on your network perform the following steps:
  • Click "Find Computers" button from the toolbar or press "F3";
  • This will start scanning your network for all available computers;
  • To cancel scanning process, click the "Stop finding of computers" button from the toolbar or press "F4";
  • When the scanning process will complete you will see the list of computers.
Add computers by domain
    To add computers by domain perform the following steps:
  • Click "Add Computers by Domain" button from the toolbar;
  • An "Add Computers by Domain" dialog box will appear on the screen;
  • Type name of domain. You can leave domain name blank if the primary domain is implied;
  • Click "Ok" button.
Add computers by range of IP addresses

Sometimes you need to scan available computers within a particular range of IP addresses. Just provide the starting address, the last IP address and Network Asset Tracker Pro will scan all available computers between that range of IP addresses.

    To add computers by range of IP addresses perform the following steps:
  • Click "Add Computers by IP range" button from the toolbar;

How to delete computers

To delete computers or folders press "Del" key or select menu "Computer" -> "Delete". Then selected folders and computers will be deleted from the list.

How to get information from remote PC

You can get information from remote computer through WMI (agentless method) or through "NAT Pro - Agent" (agent-based method). By default Network Asset Tracker Pro uses WMI. To use agent-based scan you should install "NAT Pro - Agent" on remote PC. Network Asset Tracker Pro automatically detects if "NAT Pro - Agent" is installed on remote computer.

agent-based method

Just select computers you want to scan and click "Get Info" button from the toolbar or press "Ctrl+I". This will start scanning remote computers.

You can set up the type of information collected from remote computers. To do this select menu "File" -> "Options", then "Scan Properties".

The account attempting remote access should be an administrator on the target computer (for example - domain administrator). If you don't have rights of the domain administrator you can use custom logon name and password for getting info from remote PC. To do this, select menu "File" -> "Options", then "Custom Logon".

How to use agent on remote PC

If you have any problems with WMI, you can use agent installed on remote PC. You can install "NAT Pro - Agent" from main Network Asset Tracker Pro installation package. Also you can download "NAT Pro - Agent" as a standalone installation package at misutilities.com site. You can download a standard EXE-package or download a MSI-package for remote deploying through Active Directory.

Main Window

- green color of computer's icon shows that "NAT Pro - Agent" is detected.

You can set up some options of agent installed on remote PC. To do this select menu "Computer" -> "Remote Agent Information".

Remote Agent Information

By default the icon of "NAT Pro - Agent" is visible in system tray on remote computer. You can hide this icon from system tray. To do this select "Hide tray icon" option in "Remote Agent Information" window.

How to use custom columns

You can use custom columns for storing your custom information, for example serial number, phone number, etc... To edit data in custom column click "Edit Custom Column" button from the toolbar or click twice on custom data you want to edit.

Edit Custom Column

To manage custom columns select menu "File" -> "Options". Then select "Custom Columns".

In the window "Options" you can add, delete or move custom columns up or down.
