How about "System Description" in "Remote SNMP". I did a scan against a bunch of our Cisco Routers and it comes back with "Cisco IOS Software, 2800 Software (C2800.....)" point being you can tell that is a Cisco 2800 Router. I don't know if that is good enough or not.
Maybe the Feature Request is to capture information off an HTTP page, kind of like how the XML does, count the lines from top no matter how big or small the text and NetScan will display it?? This could be used for printers, phones, copy machines, firewalls, switches, routers, NAS and SAN systems, UPS systems, etc., etc. etc. etc. anything that has a web page in it. -WS
