Managing third-party devices with OvrC Pro is now more straightforward and secure, thanks to our latest update. With these enhancements, OvrC Pro supports SNMP v3 and streamlines the configurations of SNMP v1 and V2 communities. Here’s what you need to know about these updates and how they benefit your business:
What is SNMP?
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a standard protocol used to monitor and manage devices on a network; think routers, switches, wireless access points, printers, and more. By configuring SNMP, OvrC Pro can gather richer data from your devices, making troubleshooting more accurate and providing a clearer picture of your entire network.
For those less familiar with networking, it helps to know that OvrC has always supported SNMP v1 and v2. However, setting them up was tricky, and the data sent over the network wasn’t encrypted. That’s where SNMP v3 comes in: it introduces encryption and lets you use unique usernames and passwords for each device, making your network more secure.

OvrC Enhancement: Auto-Claim and Device Reclaim Controls
OvrC just got even more flexible and secure with enhanced Auto-Claim Controls and a new Device Reclaim workflow. These features give integrators greater control over which devices are assigned to locations, streamline device management, and eliminate the need for support tickets or site takeovers when reclaiming hardware.
Overview
With the latest update, integrators can:
This means devices can be assigned or reassigned quickly and accurately, reducing errors and saving time.
Auto-Claim Controls
Auto-Claim automatically recognizes devices on the network and securely adds them to a location when an OvrC Pro agent is installed using validated identifiers. Now, Auto-Claim can be enabled or disabled per location. When Auto-Claim is off, OvrC Pro will still detect devices on the network, but won't claim them automatically. Instead, a banner appears in the location showing unclaimed devices with an option for integrators to manually review and claim one or more devices.
Why It Matters
Where to Find Auto-Claim
Auto-Claim settings are accessible in two places:
1. Add/Edit Location
2. Remote Management
Note: Auto-Claim is ON by default.
Device Reclaim
Device Reclaim makes it simple to reassign any individual device to the correct customer or location in seconds, no impact to the rest of the network and no support ticket required. When OvrC detects a device on your network that’s already claimed elsewhere, a banner appears, allowing integrators to reclaim it to the current location. You can reclaim one, many, or all applicable devices in a single step.
Note: Device Reclaim does not copy the device name, notes, or activity logs from the previous location.
