Issue/Introduction

What do the different certification levels for devices mean in Smarts product.

Environment

Smarts - 10.1.x

Resolution

CERTIFIED - Smarts has successfully tested a simulation of the device in the Smarts laboratory using generic and private MIBs supplied by the vendor.
TEMPLATE - Smarts assumes that the device supports some generic and private MIBs, but no testing has been done. Therefore, this device may not be properly supported by the particular Smarts application that is installed in User environment.
GENERIC - Smarts does not have the OID for the device. Devices with a certification level of GENERIC are instances/elements of the Node class. The level of analysis will be equivalent to any device which supports MIB-II.
