The Devices screen gives administrators a real-time view of every endpoint that has connected to the network through Timus Connect. From here, you can monitor connection states, review posture results, and take action on individual or multiple devices without leaving the portal.
Device Table
Each device appears in the table as soon as a user opens Timus Connect. The following columns are available:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The device's display name. Defaults to the system hostname unless manually renamed |
| MAC | Hardware MAC address of the device |
| Local IP | The private IP address reported by the device at the time of connection |
| Public IP | The public IP address the device is connecting from |
| OS | Detected operating system |
| Client Version | The version of Timus Connect installed on the device |
| User | The user account associated with this device, if one exists |
| Status | Current connection state |
| Tags | Tags assigned to the device |
| Site | The gateway this device is connected through |
| Interface | The tunnel interface used for the device's most recent connection |
| Last Sign-In Date | Timestamp of the last time this device was seen on the network |
Device Actions
Click the ••• next to any device to access the following:
- Details — Opens a summary of the device's telemetry data collected by Timus Connect, including security, hardware, network, storage, programs, and running processes. The Postures section shows the results of any Device Posture Checks run against this device, covering conditions from both Timus Connect and integrated EPP solutions.
- Edit — Opens the device edit panel, where you can rename the device, manage tag assignments, enable or disable SSL Inspection, configure site-based remote access, and review system details.
- Drop Connection — Terminates the device's connection without reconnecting.
- Delete Device – Removes the device from the system. Deleted devices are referenced in logs and reports by their ID: Deleted Device (ID: {id}).
Bulk Actions
Select multiple devices to act on them together using the Actions menu:
- Edit Settings — Apply tag changes or toggle SSL Inspection across the selected devices at once.
- Refresh Connection — Drops and immediately re-establishes connection for all selected devices. Available for desktop devices only.
- Drop Connection — Terminates active sessions for all selected devices simultaneously.

Settings
The Settings button at the top of the Devices screen contains inventory management preferences.
Auto-Remove Inactive Devices
When enabled, the system automatically removes devices that have been offline longer than the threshold you define, keeping your device list accurate without manual cleanup.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Auto-remove inactive devices | Enables or disables automatic removal |
| Inactivity Period | The offline duration after which a device is removed. Can be set in hours or days |
| Last Cleanup | The timestamp of the most recent automated removal run |
The system checks for inactive devices every 3 hours. Any device that has exceeded the inactivity period at the time of a check is removed automatically. As with manual deletion, removed devices appear in logs and reports as Deleted Device (ID: {id}).
