Upon shutting down a device, Network Agent notifies the Administration Server of this event. In Administration Console that device is displayed as shut down. However, Network Agent cannot notify Administration Server of all such events. The Administration Server, therefore, periodically analyzes the Connected to Administration Server attribute (the value of this attribute is displayed in Administration Console, in the device properties, in the General section) for each device and compares it against the synchronization interval from the current settings of Network Agent. If a device has not responded over more than three successive synchronization intervals, that device is marked as shut down.
