IPAM is an acronym that stands for Internet Protocol Address Management. It is a method for storing, monitoring, and changing information about the IP addressing system. It can assist network administrators in keeping the IP address list up to date. IPAM is used as a form of inventory system for the assigned and unassigned IP addresses, their subnets, status, the hardware associated with them, and hostname data. It enables administrators to keep accurate and up-to-date information of IP allocations and those addresses that are available.
SolarWinds IP Address Manager
SolarWinds IP Address Manager is currently one of the best IP tracking systems (IPAM) as it includes all of the essentials, such as automated IP management via subnet discovery and IP scanning. It also facilitates simple DHCP/DNS management for traffic routing and directing. These functionalities are required in any basic administration solution, but the SolarWinds IP Address Manager goes a step beyond. It provides the option to simply assign access to other administrators, allowing one to designate and take accountability without having to open their full IP range to every administrator. SolarWinds IP Address Manager also automatically recognizes and informs one of IP issues or troubles, logs DNS problems, and keeps a comprehensive account of everything so that one can have valuable information for a system diagnosis or explanation later.
