Here are a few custom SWQL Queries that report on entries in the NCM Physical Entities table, data that is collected via SNMP through NCM's Inventory Feature.
This SWQL query will show all rows that have a Serial Number value and exclude entities without serial numbers (Filtered to Cisco Vendor, to remove, under the 'Where' clause take out the OrionNodes.Vendor='Cisco' AND):
-- Scripts are not supported under any SolarWinds support program or service.
-- Scripts are provided AS IS without warranty of any kind. SolarWinds further
-- disclaims all warranties including, without limitation, any implied warranties
-- of merchantability or of fitness for a particular purpose. The risk arising
-- out of the use or performance of the scripts and documentation stays with you.
-- In no event shall SolarWinds or anyone else involved in the creation,
-- production, or delivery of the scripts be liable for any damages whatsoever
-- (including, without limitation, damages for loss of business profits, business
-- interruption, loss of business information, or other pecuniary loss) arising
-- out of the use of or inability to use the scripts or documentation.

This SWQL query is a modified version of the one above but also excludes a few class types such as modules and sensors (Filtered to Cisco Vendor, to remove, under the 'Where' clause, take out the OrionNodes.Vendor='Cisco' AND):

This query will show the entire NCM_EntityPhysical table by removing the where clauses for Vendor and other objects being filter:
