Compaq Insight Manager
Using the industry standard SNMP protocol found in Windows 95 and Windows NT Workstation,
Compaq Insight Manager delivers world-class client-server management for all commercial
products from Compaq.
One of Insight Manager’s core features is the ability to connect to the
Insight Management Agent running (and pre-installed) on all Armada portable PCs and remotely
view the AssetControl and other configuration data.

The Compaq Management Solutions Partners Program
The other method for viewing AssetControl data remotely is through the Compaq Management
Solutions Partners Program.
This program is a Compaq initiative that ensures compatibility and
integration of Intelligent Manageability features with products from a broad range of leading PC
LAN management vendors.
This program allows customers to manage Armada portable PCs
remotely using their tool of choice.
For more information on the Compaq Management Solutions Partners Program, please see the
Integration Management section.
AssetControl
data significantly extends upon the information that the Management Solutions
Partners products can extract and present from other vendors’ products.
Information such as
processor type, IRQ maps, and memory configuration is available from any PC.
The unique
AssetControl information, on the other hand, provides the key that helps make Armada portable
PCs easier to inventory.
Accurately tracking Asset Tags, model information and system /
component serial numbers allows a PC administrator to pinpoint asset locations.
The ability to
track this information over the network lowers the cost of inventory tracking and allows a service
technician to arrive at a PC site with the proper replacement parts if hardware problems arise.
