# Review and update the telecommunications equipment details {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 2 minutes to read  
Review and update a network asset instance for your telecommunications equipment. You define the equipment instances so that you can track and manage your network assets in the Telecommunications Network Inventory application.

## Before you begin

You create the equipment form. To learn more, see [Create a telecommunications equipment instance](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/6L93yzwxhZ0pWrHa3OERyQ "Create a telecommunications equipment instance in your network. You define the equipment instances so that you can track and manage your network assets in the Telecommunications Network Inventory application.").

Role required: sn_ni_core.inventory_admin, sn_ni_core.inventory_agent

## Procedure

1. Navigate to WorkspacesNetwork Inventory Workspace.
2. Select the list icon (![List icon.]()), and then go to InventoryAll Equipment.  
   The All Equipment window lists the configuration item (CI) records, which have an inventory category set as Equipment.
3. Select the CI record that you want to update.
4. On the Details tab, fill in the fields.  
   The following table lists the fields that are unique to the Telco Equipment form.

   To learn about the remaining identification fields that are common to most of the Inventory and Inventory number allocation menu forms, see [Commonly used network asset instance identification fields](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/NML_AkDY8UBbM_gtUcrdxA "Some network asset instance fields are common in the identification sections of the Telecommunications Network Inventory forms. The ServiceNow AI Platform uses these fields to identify and categorize your network inventory assets.").{#define-tni-equipment__ph-common-identifying-fields}
   {#define-tni-equipment__table_htp_wkd_wrb__entry__2}

   | Field | Description |
   |-|-|
   | Name | Name of this telecommunications equipment. The ServiceNow AI Platform uses this name to identify it in your network inventory. |
   | Product model | Name of the product model that this telco equipment belongs to. Select the search icon (![Search icon.]() ) and select a model. To learn more, see [Create an equipment model](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/eA5xP31rQASdB4Otj7ldCA "Create an equipment model in the Telecommunications Network Inventory application as the first requirement for setting up the process to generate your network asset instances. You create an equipment model record every time a vendor or original equipment manufacturer (OEM) introduces new equipment for your use."). |
   [Table 1. Telco Equipment form]

   {#define-tni-equipment__table_htp_wkd_wrb}
5. On the Details tab, in the Configuration section, fill in the configuration information for the telco equipment.  
   To learn more about the fields that are unique to the Configuration section in the Telco Equipment form, see [Telco Equipment form](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/No_US_PZOKkyS0SahLSrYg "The Telco Equipment form enables you to create, review, and modify the network asset details for a piece of equipment.").

   To learn about the remaining configuration fields that are common to most of the Inventory menu forms, see [Commonly used network asset instance configuration fields](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/_IPzxAUaZB6mLdWFm1K1Xg "These fields, listed in alphabetic order, are common to some or most of the Configuration sections in the Telecommunications Network Inventory forms. The ServiceNow AI Platform uses them to configure individual network assets when you define your network asset instances.").{#define-tni-equipment__ph-common-configuration-fields}
6. Select Save.  
   The Telecommunications Network Inventory attribute fields are displayed on the Telco Equipment form after you save the TNI CI Attributes form. The Set Inventory Attributes doesn't appear when you
   reopen the CI record.
7. Add the attachments, such as the graphics or documents by selecting the attachment icon (![Attachment icon.]()) in the right panel.
8. Select Save.  
   The related tabs appear on the form. You can view or modify the related tab information. To learn more about the related tabs, see [Related tabs in the Network inventory forms](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/jACb5lIoDhdHZ6aLqvsTJw "The related tabs in the Network Inventory forms display the related records that dynamically change based on the connection and relationships with the other network assets. You can selectively view, modify, or update these records.").
9. To view the Dependency Views map, select the more options icon (![More Options icon.]()) and then select Dependency View.  
   The Dependency Views map graphically displays the CIs that support the network asset and the relationships between the CIs.
10. View the visual representation of the selected record by selecting the Open Map button.  
    Note:  
    Install Service Graph Workspace or CMDB Workspace 3.5.0 or a later version to get this button in your instance. To learn more, see [CMDB Workspace](https://store.servicenow.com/sn_appstore_store.do#!/store/application/c8ab76825371201032b7ddeeff7b1280/3.5.0).
11. View the associated network inventories by selecting the brick icon (![Brick icon.]()).  
    The Infrastructure Relationships section shows all the associated network inventories grouped by the individual network asset instances.

## What to do next

If you want to establish relationships with the other network assets, enter the details in the related tabs. To learn more, see [Related tabs in the Network inventory forms](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/jACb5lIoDhdHZ6aLqvsTJw "The related tabs in the Network Inventory forms display the related records that dynamically change based on the connection and relationships with the other network assets. You can selectively view, modify, or update these records.").
