Network Device Tracking
Automate device tracking and network issues alerting
Automate the network device tracking process
SolarWinds® User Device Tracker (UDT) automates network tracking, keeping tabs on both users and devices. It also offers port management capabilities enabling the control of users and devices connecting to the network.
With the UDT network tracker, you can quickly find users and computers on your network in just a few clicks, gaining visibility into devices directly connected at the SD-WAN edge for better operations and performance analysis. The UDT network trackers also help you find rogue or lost devices on the network.
Receive data about devices on my network
With SolarWinds User Device Tracker, you can more easily find the exact location of devices in your network and detailed load analysis data. All it takes is a simple search on a username, MAC address, IP address, or hostname for the UDT network tracker to find a device.
The software is also designed to periodically poll switches and routers for data about what is connected to them.
SolarWinds UDT is built to save both current and historical data about when and where a device has been connected to your network. You can also get notifications and reports about every connected device including extensive user login and device connection data to help with incident investigation.
Identify devices on the network and alert on detected issues
SolarWinds UDT empowers you to monitor the devices accessing your network, including enabling you to quickly detect any unapproved devices accessing the network. The network device tracker’s whitelisting feature makes it easy to identify which of the devices accessing your network are “safe,” based either on rules that define devices or because they are specifically on the whitelist, and which are “rogue.” Any device that isn’t on the whitelist will automatically appear in the Rogue Devices resource list and an alert will be generated to notify you about the potential danger.
Create customizable Network User and Device Reports
SolarWinds User Device Tracker is more than just a network tracker. It also provides the tools needed to understand and present the information it collects. For those looking for something more specialized, UDT makes it easy to create customized network user and device reports in different formats using the SolarWinds Report Writer.
If you’d rather build a report using an existing template, UDT provides those as well. You can create user and device reports using 11 out-of-the-box reports as well as numerous community-generated templates.
Improve network tracking and traffic monitoring
In addition to offering powerful network tracking, SolarWinds UDT integrates seamlessly with SolarWinds® NetFlow Traffic Analyzer (NTA) so you can more easily monitor and manage network traffic.
By integrating UDT with NTA, you can more easily identify, locate, and block the devices and users who are hogging network bandwidth unnecessarily.
UDT’s additional possibilities don’t end there. With the SolarWinds® IP
Control Bundle, you get all the advantages of UDT along with all the features of SolarWinds®
IP Address Manager. That means improving visibility with IP and MAC address tracking, resolving IP conflicts more quickly, and increasing network reliability.

Do you find yourself asking…
Network device tracking is the ability to locate all the users and endpoint devices on a network. It is a form of network tracking and monitoring that lets network administrators stay aware of the devices (both wired and wireless) connected to the network. These devices include everything from laptops and desktops to switches and routers.
Device tracking is one of the best ways to see what devices are on or are connecting to your network. Unfortunately, manually tracking devices can be extremely time-consuming to do accurately—especially if you have a large network. Even if you manage to discover all the devices accurately manually on your network, tracking their locations can be difficult without a network device tracking tool. Worse, without a tool, it will be difficult, if not impossible, to maintain accurate, usable records to be used to create reports and identify and resolve security or network issues if and when they arise.
A network tracking tool like SolarWinds® User Device Tracker (UDT) can help answer the question of how to identify devices on your network. The tool is built to automatically discover, map, and monitor network devices, switches, and ports, making it possible to quickly see exactly what devices are connected to what ports.
