The Assets resource provides tools for managing assets and asset ranges, and tools for managing the other network and asset modeling features associated with assets:
Zones (Managing Zones)
Networks (Managing Networks)
Asset Categories (Managing Asset Categories)
Vulnerabilities (Managing Vulnerabilities)
Locations (Managing Locations)
Networks and Zones describe characteristics of how the asset is represented in the network itself. Locations, Vulnerabilities, and Asset Categories describe attributes of the assets that can be used for prioritization and correlation.
You can organize any of these distinctions into groups upon which you can set up user access controls.
You can also create a channel based on any of these distinctions to get additional monitoring views into the events happening on your network.
