Manage device properties
Every managed device in N-able N-central has a set of configurable properties that you can modify.
- Go to Views > All Devices.
- Select the device name.
- Select the Settings tab, then Properties.
- Enter a device name.
- Select a Device Class and Operating System.
- Set the Network Address, if it is not already configured.
- Select the License Mode.
- Select the checkboxes to enable Scheduled Tasks, Direct Support and Take Control.
- In the Credentials section, enter an administrator‑level user name and password used to sign in to the device. N-able N-central uses these credentials for some scheduled tasks that require device access.
You may need to include the domain name, for example:
domain\username. - Select Save.
The properties for the device are updated.
