Method of creating a data processing object associated with a communication protocol used to extract status information related to a monitored device
First Claim
1. A method of creating a data processing object associated with a communication protocol used to extract status information related to a monitored device communicatively coupled to a network, comprising:
- accessing the monitored device using the communication protocol to obtain at least vendor information related to the monitored device;
obtaining, from a first memory, information related to an access function for extracting the status information from an accessible data file on the monitored device;
generating a string using the obtained vendor information and the obtained access function information;
obtaining, from a second memory, information related to a creation function corresponding to the generated string; and
creating the data processing object using the obtained creation function.
