Platform Support

Windows, Linux & network devices

Ordyn installs a native system service and manages network devices via SNMP - all in the same device tree.

Windows

x64 · MSI packaging

The Ordyn Windows agent installs as a native Windows service via MSI. It runs in the system context by default but can execute tasks in user contexts, as specific accounts, or in elevated modes when needed.

Windows is the most feature-rich platform in Ordyn: provisioning, in-place upgrades, registry management, Hyper-V, GUI automation, self-service portal, and deep security posture integration are Windows-exclusive capabilities.

Supported capabilities

Native Windows service
MSI installation
Tray & self-service portal
User prompts
Windows execution contexts
Registry actions
Windows Update workflows
Windows Update policy
Windows Firewall policy

Linux

x86_64 · ARM64

The Ordyn Linux agent runs as a systemd service and installs via a .deb package.

Linux is the primary platform for Docker and container management - Ordyn can inventory Docker resources and Compose projects and check images against registries.

Network & Infrastructure

SNMP · Net Nodes · Generic Endpoints

Network devices do not run the Ordyn agent - they are managed via SNMP and net nodes placed on the local network. They appear in the same device tree as agent-managed computers.

SNMP Switches

  • Switch facts & inventory
  • Port inventory & link state
  • VLAN data
  • Learned MAC addresses
  • Endpoint-to-port mapping
  • Enable / disable ports
  • Port alias updates
  • SNMP trap automation

SNMP Printers

  • Printer facts & status
  • Appears in device tree
  • SNMP service client managed

Net Nodes

  • Wake-on-LAN
  • Ping checks
  • PXE boot services

IPAM Coverage

IPAM receives network data from all device types in Ordyn:

  • Windows & Linux agent interfaces
  • Generic endpoints
  • Switch & printer endpoints
  • Service metadata (SSH, RDP, HTTPS, SMB, …)
