Versions:
GLPI Agent 1.16, released by Teclib’ as the tenth iteration of the lightweight generic management agent, is designed to automate hardware discovery, software inventory, network scanning and remote control across Windows, Linux and macOS fleets. Operating either on a locally defined schedule or under directives issued by a GLPI server, the open-source daemon collects granular system data—serial numbers, installed programs, patch levels, peripherals, virtual-machines relationships—and forwards it through an encrypted channel to the GLPI asset-management console, giving IT teams a continuously updated CMDB without manual audits. Beyond inventory, the same executable can be instructed to carry out Wake-on-LAN, package deployment, SNMP queries, VMware vCenter interrogation, or NetDiscovery tasks, making the tool equally useful for help-desk agents who need live endpoint information and for administrators who baseline configurations before mass roll-outs. Forked from the mature FusionInventory agent, GLPI Agent retains backward compatibility with the FusionInventory for GLPI plugin while adding a native JSON protocol that halves bandwidth use and supports real-time server push, TLS client certificates and proxy auto-detection for dispersed sites. Enterprises that migrated from OCS Inventory or that run GLPI 10.x therefore gain a unified pathway to feed accurate data into change, incident and software-license processes, while smaller organizations can schedule the agent as a portable service to satisfy simple compliance spreadsheets. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
