Infoblox IPAM Insight (IPAM Discovery Module)

Infoblox IPAM Insight is an extension to the Infoblox IP Address Management solution that further automates the collection and management of IP addresses and combines it with rich network details.

Infoblox IPAM Insight provides a single point of view for critical network components including IP addresses, physical and logical layer 2 and layer 3 network components. Additionally, it auto-populates the IPAM database fields with network data that is typically added in manually.

IP address management and network device inventory cannot be analysed as a snapshot in time - they need to be managed in near real-time. Instead of a periodic audit, the ongoing monitoring and reporting through IPAM Insight ensures users have the most accurate, complete and up-to-date information available, providing increased reliability, enhanced security and reduced administration.


Automation & Task Delegation

  • Automate the collection, analysis and management of multiple network components including IP addresses, devices and the physical and logical components of the network
  • Allocate network or blocks of networks to functional groups, geographic regions, virtual server teams or critical staff.
  • Allow helpdesk administrators and the IP manager to assign IP addresses to new servers and printers with a mouse click
  • Allow regional administrators full control over their individual subnets while maintaining an overall corporate view

Network Troubleshooting

  • Graphically show the relationship between devices, their network neighbours and the corresponding routes and subnets
  • Find the physical location where a virtual machine is running
  • Discover all physical and virtual endpoints
  • Identify when new devices are added - whether planned or rogue

Security

  • Track all new network devices and their relationship across the network and identify any suspicious or unauthorised devices
  • Audit, document, and report on critical network components including IP addresses and network components
  • Identify and resolve IP address conflicts quickly and easily
