## Introduction

You can use Application Component Templates to create and define your own application components based on services discovered by Device42 [Hypervisor /\*nx/Windows](auto-discovery/windows-and-hyper-v-auto-discovery.md) autodiscovery jobs run against \*nix and Windows platforms. Device42 adds any application components created based on your templates to the [Application Components](apps/application-components/application-component-templates.md) list page.

You can enter an ordered list of preferred _Discovery Target(s) Credential(s)_ when you create a database discovery job. When the job runs, it will use the credentials in the order in which you enter them, stopping at the first successful authentication. Subsequent job runs use the last successful credential and then the remaining credentials in the ordered list.

## SNMP Discovery Overview

The SNMP autodiscovery method can be used for any SNMP-compatible devices. For [SNMP Network Device discovery, see our Network Device discovery documentation here](../network-auto-discovery.mdx). For SNMP based Server autodiscovery, read below. This page discusses discovery of servers and SANs via SNMP. This method will also find Windows and Linux servers. However, more information will be retrieved by the [Linux & UNIX Server Auto-Discovery documentation pages](../linux-unix-server-auto-discovery.md). For Linux and Windows servers, this method retrieves the name, MAC & IP addresses, and IP properties. If the servers happen to be Dell machines and have Dell OpenManage installed, it will additionally find serial #, model, and some other relevant information.

Device42 discovery can utilize multiple protocols to communicate with the target devices. Either WinRM or WMI can be utilized for windows discovery. As of 18.10.00, WMI is the default protocol.

When using WMI and before setting up your Windows Discovery job, you must first install WDS and connect to your Remote Collectors. For WDS installation instructions and information, visit the [Windows Discovery Service (WDS) installation](getstarted/installation/windows-discovery-service-installation.md) documentation.

Device42 integrates with and can pull a password from the Microsoft LAPS (Local Admin Password Solution). Microsoft LAPS refers to a method which secures Active Directory member servers by randomly generating each server’s local admin password, and storing the generated PW as an attribute of that servers AD object in Active Directory. This password can then be looked up on demand via an Active Directory / LDAP query, and is often used to support scripted / automated actions that iterate through lists of AD member servers.

2. **SNMP** - Once the OS-level scans have been completed, create and execute SNMP scans against the management IP’s of the targeted servers.  These jobs will update the existing devices by adding additional parts as well as the management MAC Address and IP Address.The SNMP scan captures part information such as Ram, Disk(s) and PSU.
3. **Warranty** - Depending on the vendor, these particular jobs will retrieve service contracts associated with each server from the vendor system. If the vendor system is unavailable, the warranty data can be added manually via the UI or via spreadsheet imports.
