## Clusters

vSphere clusters and their capacity.

![Clusters](https://docs.nometa.az/img/05-device-panels/vcenter/vcenter-02-clusters.webp)

## Hosts

Endpoints learned by the fabric (fvCEp), resolved to tenant / application-profile / EPG.

![Hosts](https://docs.nometa.az/img/05-device-panels/vcenter/vcenter-03-hosts.webp)

## VMs

Virtual machines with power state, guest OS and host placement.

![VMs](https://docs.nometa.az/img/05-device-panels/vcenter/vcenter-04-vms.webp)

## Networks

Port groups / networks (ACI-integrated VMM port groups show their tenant/AP/EPG).

![Networks](https://docs.nometa.az/img/05-device-panels/vcenter/vcenter-05-networks.webp)

## DVS

Distributed virtual switches.

## Changes

Configuration changes for this device, grouped by sync on a timeline. Added, removed and reordered rules render as structured cards (source and destination zones, addresses, applications and services laid out like the rule itself), each attributed to the responsible admin and access method where audit data is available. **Compare** diffs any two snapshots, and **Analyze with AI** explains a change in place when an AI provider is configured.
