Infoblox IPAM For Microsoft DNS/DHCP

Infoblox IPAM for Microsoft DNS/DHCP integrates seamlessly into existing Microsoft Windows environments to deliver the same 24x7 centralised IP address management, DNS changes and granular role-based access control as found in Infoblox NIOS. Network administrators can centrally manage parallel IP service infrastructures from a single console, reducing errors, effort and operational costs with the following NiOS capabilities:

  • Control of subnet & IP usage in Microsoft Windows server-based network service infrastructures
  • Central management of Microsoft-based DNS
  • Ability to delegate provisioning & troubleshooting tasks to local administrators & helpdesk
  • Control of user permissions
  • Ability to log changes in audit logs & check configuration syntax
  • Ability to take local network & IP assignments
  • Automation of routine tasks
  • Granular reporting data for troubleshooting & compliance

A Microsoft Gold Certified Partner for infrastructure solutions, Infoblox uses Microsoft Remote Procedure Calls (RPC) technology to integrate its NIOS IP services, management and security tools into the Windows environment, requiring no special software or configuration for Microsoft servers.

Infoblox NIOS solutions can coexist with Windows tools and best practices, and administrators can continue to use Microsoft Management Console (MMC) to manage their Windows servers.
