PRTG Manual: Available Sensor Types
Here you can find a list of all available sensors, including their category, the version they were introduced in, their performance impact, IP version, meta-scan capability, device template capability, notification triggers, and what they monitor.
In the Add a Sensor assistant, you have various options to filter for suitable sensors. You can also filter for device template capability, IP version, and meta-scan functionality, among others, via /sensorlist.htm, for example https://yourserver/sensorlist.htm.
In this section:
General sensors let you monitor the basic parameters of your network.

In addition to the built-in sensors, you can create your owns. You can write a script or a program and use it with a custom sensor. There are already many free, useful scripts, plugins, and add-ons for PRTG in the PRTG Sensor Hub. You can also directly open the PRTG Sensor Hub from the Add Sensor dialog in the PRTG web interface.
To use the sensors in the PRTG Sensor Hub, go to https://www.paessler.com/sensor-hub and follow the instructions there.
SNMP sensors let you monitor a wide range of devices via SNMP.
