Supported Devices

Which devices Stratora monitors, how each is recognized when you scan, and what alerting applies. This page is generated from the same validation records that drive the product, so it does not drift from what actually ships.

Will my device be found automatically?​

When you run discovery, Stratora identifies devices by their SNMP fingerprint. Three outcomes:

  • Auto-recognized — found automatically; recognition confirmed against real hardware or a captured firmware walk.
  • Auto-recognized (unverified) — the fingerprint pattern is in place and should match, but has not yet been confirmed against a real unit. It will usually still be found; it simply is not yet proven.
  • Manual add — not found on a scan because no fingerprint exists yet; you add the device by hand. This is a known, closable gap for the affected model, not a permanent limitation.

Servers are enrolled through the Stratora Agent rather than scanned; vCenter is API-connected; the generic templates apply to any host.

Validation badges​

  • Validated — verified against a real physical device on the bench.
  • Replay-validated — verified against a captured firmware walk replayed in a simulator; no physical device was involved. Metric queries resolve, but because replayed counters do not move, alert firing is not proven on this basis.
  • MIB-derived — built from vendor MIB documentation and not yet verified against any device.

A note on environmental alerting​

Environmental alerting (temperature, fan, PSU) is available on the Server BMC templates (Dell iDRAC, HPE iLO) — polled out-of-band from the server's management controller. It is not available on network-device templates (switches, routers, firewalls, access points): where those devices expose sensors, Stratora does not yet collect them in a usable form. If you need environmental alerts on network gear today, plan around this limitation.

Every row is derived from a device template's validation record. Hyper-V, Proxmox, and Nutanix are monitored through their own agent/API collectors rather than an SNMP template, so they are covered separately, not in this SNMP-oriented matrix.
