The Device Inventory Report gives you a visual, exportable summary of device inventory across your global or multi-site environment.
Use this report to quickly review total sites, total devices, network elements, SNMP authorization coverage, and device breakdowns by type, vendor, model, and top sites. You can preview the report in Auvik and export it as a PDF for client reviews, audits, QBRs, renewals, or internal documentation.
What is the Device Inventory Report?
The Device Inventory Report is a built-in report available from the global or multi-site level in Auvik.

Best practices
Use All sites when preparing a global inventory summary for leadership, audits, or QBRs.
Use Specific sites when preparing a client-specific or site-specific report.
Use Specific device types when you only need to report on a subset of the environment, such as switches, firewalls, routers, or access points.
Review the web preview before exporting the PDF.
Use the Prepared for field to make the report client-ready or stakeholder-ready.
Additional information
Report contents depend on the devices discovered and monitored in your Auvik environment. If the report does not show the expected data, verify that:
User should have appropriate 'Reports' user permission to access this report
The relevant sites are included in the report configuration.
The expected devices have been discovered by Auvik.
The devices are classified correctly.
SNMP credentials are configured where SNMP authorization coverage is expected.
The selected device type filters include the devices you want to report on.
Auvik will add more such global and multi-site reports in the future.
