+# Device Management

+      Laptop, TV, router, ....) or type a new device type
+  - **Vendor**: Automatically updated by Pi.Alert
+  - **Favorite**: Mark the device as favorite and then it will appears at the
+      begining of the device list

+  - **Last IP**: Last known IP used during the last connection
+  - **Static IP**: Check this box to identify devices that always use the
+      same IP
+
+### Events & Alerts config
+  - **Scan Cycle**: Select the scan cycle: 0, 1', 15'. Some devices do not
+      respond to all ARP packets, for this cases is better to use a 15' cycle.
+      ***For apple devices I recommend using 15' cycle***
+  - **Alert All Events**: Send a notification in each event (connection,
+      disconnection, IP Changed, ...)
+  - **Alert Down**: Send a notification when the device is down
+      *(userful with "always connected" devices: Router, AP, Camera, Alexa,
+      ...)*
+  - **Skip repeated notifications during**: Do not send more than one
+      notification to this device for X hours
+      *(useful to avoid notification saturation on devices that frequently
+      connects and disconnects)
+
