Zenoss uses plug-in maps to map real world information into the standard model. Input to the plug-ins can come from SNMP, SSH or Telnet. Selection of plug-ins to run against a device is done by matching the plug-in name against the zCollectorPlugins zProperty. Plug-ins selected in zCollectorPlugins are the ones that are collected.
