NetMRI collects large quantities of low-level device data that can be viewed at any time. During troubleshooting, experienced admins can use low-level device information to help solve problems. The tool for viewing any device's diverse array of information is called the **Device** **Viewer**.

To open the Device Viewer for any device, click the device's hyperlink anywhere it appears in NetMRI displays.

> ⚠️ **Note**
> ⚠️ 
> ⚠️ Since they are simple browser pop-up windows, multiple Device Viewers can be open simultaneously.

To view different kinds of information in the Device Viewer, click the desired item in the right-side panel. Corresponding information appears in the main panel. Information in the Device Viewer depends on the device type.

> ⚠️ **Note**
> ⚠️ 
> ⚠️ You can define individual devices' SNMP and CLI credentials in the Device Viewer.
