Save time and prevent costly errors with affordable, easy-to-use IP address management software

At A Glance

Networks are getting bigger and more complex, driven by the need for greater performance, BYOD, server virtualization, cloud migration, and smart devices. Meeting these challenges begins with managing your inventory of IP addresses and vital DHCP and DNS resources. SolarWinds® IP Address Manager (IPAM) provides you with centralized IP address management that works hand-in-hand with unified DHCP and DNS administration.

Features Overview

  • Automated IP address tracking
  • Integrated DHCP, DNS, and IP address management
  • IP alerting, troubleshooting, and reporting
  • Delegated administration
  • IP detail and history tracking
  • API Support

Key Features

Automated IP address tracking

Do away with IP tracking spreadsheets and actively identify and manage IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

Use active scanning to discover and track subnets and associated address blocks, and view transient IP addresses to easily identify abandoned IP addresses and reclaim them.

Integrated DHCP, DNS, and IP address management

Work with an affordable and fully integrated DHCP, DNS, and IP Address administrative system.

Find an open IP address and make the DHCP reservation and DNS entries all at once from a single console.

IP alerting, troubleshooting, and reporting

Stay on top of IP address conflicts, subnets/scope depletion, or mismatched DNS entries.

Monitor IP address usage, receive alerts on subnet capacity issues and IP address conflicts, and quickly resolve issues that impact performance.

Delegated administration

Delegate IP administration with ease.

Allow systems and network administrators to monitor their own range of IPs by facilitating IP administration.

IP detail and history tracking

Know your IPs like the back of your hand.

Get in-depth details on all of your IPs and how they’ve been used, even if they’re ancient history.

API Support

IPAM offers API support with CRUD (create, read, update, delete) operations to provide two-way integration with third-party software.

Automate the creation, modification, and deletion of IP records. Additionally, create new subnets in IPAM and create/update/remove DNS entries through the API.
