I have multiple branch sites and all sites are connected back to Hub site and all computers and printers are obtaining IP address from DHCP server, now i wonder how to monitor all pcs and printers while they dont have a static ip address. Is there any way to monitor them?

Hello,
with IPs not being static, you could use DNS names as device address. The probe then uses the operating system to resolve the name.
