Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for using a presence-based network to monitor systems, devices, or agents. According to one embodiment, monitoring a system can comprise receiving a publication of one or more presence attributes from a presence network agent. The presence attributes can comprise at least one attribute indicating information other than presence information. A presence profile associated with the presence network agent can be updated based on the received presence attributes. One or more of the presence attributes of the presence profile associated with the presence network agent can be provided to a listener. For example, providing presence attributes to the listener can comprise providing a notification of a change in the at least one presence attribute. Additionally or alternatively, a request can be received from the listener for one or more presence attributes and the presence attribute can be provided in response to the request.
