PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method, a system, and a computer program product for managing information used by a plurality of communication protocols to extract status information related to a monitored device among individual devices communicatively coupled to a network. SOLUTION: The method includes steps selecting a communication protocol among the plurality of communication protocols; retrieving, from a first memory, information for accessing the device using the selected communication protocol; and accessing the device using the selected communication protocol and the information retrieved from the first memory. In addition, a vendor-model support map, a protocol parameter map, and a status information map are maintained to allow for the efficient extraction of status information from monitored network devices using the plurality of communication protocols.
