3. Claim your first device

Overview

There are three main methods to claim devices - connect existing devices to be accessible in your tenant.

  1. Devices with native support for Xyte
  2. Devices connected to an existing cloud (e.g. XiO / Zoom Rooms / etc) - "Cloud 2 Cloud" integration.
  3. Devices without a cloud connection - to be monitored via a local Edge

Claiming a Native Device

Devices manufactured with direct support to Xyte, can be claimed directly once they are connected to the network end setup.

Claiming a Cloud 2 Cloud integration based device

Devices with an existing cloud solution, can be managed via Xyte's existing Cloud 2 Cloud integrations.

Claiming local network devices via Edge

Devices without a cloud solution can still be managed via a local Edge that interacts with them via the local network. This covers any device with a TCP/IP connection.

Basic "ping" monitoring is available for all devices, but an extended library of custom Drivers maintained by Xyte - gives deeper insights and commands to thousands devices and brands.
