Abstract
A networked system has a first device which sends commands to one or more other devices. If those other devices are able to follow the commands, they inhibit reporting of their status. Thus, network status data is maintained based on the commands, unless status reports indicate that the commands could not be followed or that status changes have been made which were not in response to commands from the first device.
