SolarWinds IP Address Manager
®

Simplify DHCP, DNS, and IP Address Management

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.

that works hand in hand with unified DHCP and DNS administration. This means that teams
can quickly find available addresses and easily configure them on virtually any DHCP and
DNS system. IPAM also alerts you in advance of serious problems like address conflicts, poor
performing DHCP/DNS servers, or full DHCP scopes.

IP ADDRESS MANAGER AT A GLANCE
»» Capable of preventing IP conflicts with powerful IPv4 and IPv6 address management
»» Save time provisioning or reclaiming IP addresses with seamless DHCP and DNS integration
»» Avoid problems by monitoring and receiving alerts on critical IP events
»» Delegate IP administration to network and system admins using role-based access
»» API support provides two-way integration with third-party software
»» Integrates with SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor (NPM) and Server & Application
Monitor (SAM)

FEATURES
IPv4 and IPv6 Address Management
IPAM actively identifies and manages IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and uses active scanning to
discover and track subnets and associated address blocks. Finding an available address is as
simple as navigating to a target subnet, viewing, and selecting an available IP address. Also, view

transient IP addresses to easily identify orphaned IP addresses and reclaim them.

Integrated DHCP and DNS Configuration Management
IPAM works with your multi-vendor DHCP and DNS services—no additional proprietary software
or hardware is required for management. You can easily unify and manage all of your Microsoft ,
®

Cisco , and ISC open source DHCP servers as well as your BIND and Microsoft DNS Servers. All
®

DHCP and DNS changes you make in IPAM are seamlessly propagated to the respective servers,
enabling teams to easily find and configure IP addresses from a single management console.

Monitoring and Alerting
IPAM automatically and proactively detects IP address problems that can eventually lead to
network disruption. You can continuously monitor and improve IP performance with proactive
detection of IP address problems, notification of IP address changes in the network, and access
to utilization data on essential metrics for planning. Active monitoring and alerting helps eliminate
network downtime due to IP conflicts and non-availability of IP addresses due to full subnets.

Role-based Administration
IPAM lets you independently manage your DHCP, DNS, and IP subnets. Work independently of
other admin teams with IPAM, allowing each team to manage their own subnets, address blocks,
and DHCP and DNS services without impacting each other. Role-based administration helps
maintain security without limiting delegation of IP address management activities.

IP Conflict Detection Resource
Quickly tend to IP conflict issues and help avert network downtime. IPAM alerts you every time
there is an IP conflict on the network. Integration with SolarWinds User Device Tracker (optional)
lays out detailed device and switch port information that aids in troubleshooting. Historical data
on IP address usage reveals which device had the IP first. Using the remote shutdown option,
you can immediately cut off network connectivity of the problematic device.

Integrated End-Point Tracking
IPAM integrates with UDT to provide a single view of IP addresses and corresponding end-point
connection/ location details. This enables improved troubleshooting and enhanced network
access protection with port shutdown. Monitor suspicious activity in the network and track
down rogue devices that are a threat to your network. When both IPAM and UDT are installed,
IPAM displays corresponding switch port details and user information—all within the same

integrated view. This lets you quickly track down and resolve network issues before they cause
a major problem.

Global IP Address Search
IPAM tracks down a specific IP address on your network in just seconds by performing a global
search. You can quickly and easily access IP address data to search for available IPs and meet
IP requests.

Subnet Allocation Wizard
You can specify supernet and subnet sizes so IPAM can automatically allocate the correctlysized subnet. Subnet Allocation Wizard helps you efficiently organize your managed IP address
space into subnets that are sized appropriately for the extent and traffic of your network. With its
real-time subnet calculator, the IPAM Subnet Allocation Wizard allows you to quickly determine
the most efficient way to subdivide any supernet.

Microsoft Active Directory Integration
Leverage your existing Microsoft Active Directory user accounts to allow users to log in to
®

SolarWinds IPAM. You save time on configuring and creating separate logins for IPAM.

Automated IPv4 Subnet Discovery
SolarWinds IPAM helps you create an up-to date IP address map of your network by directly
pulling data from router configurations and connected machines. The Automatic Subnet
Discovery uses SNMP credentials for polling devices and discovers subnets from the routing
table of the router.

Automated IP Address Scanning
IPAM allows you to easily set up scheduled, automatic scanning for both your IPv4 and IPv6
address space. Reduce manual errors and help ensure that your network’s IP address information
is always up to date. Scheduled IP address scanning also helps you avoid IP address conflicts
by recognizing transient IP status.

DHCP Split Scope Functionality
IPAM gives you quick and easy DHCP split scope configuration for high availability and load
balancing of your critical DHCP services. IPAM allows you to quickly configure your DHCP split
scope with a simple two-step wizard. Additionally, the centralized web console offers visibility
into related scopes and scope distribution across subnets.

Advanced DHCP Configuration Options
IPAM allows you to directly configure standard DHCP options for your multi-vendor DHCP
servers without having to log in to the DHCP server or deal with complicated CLI commands.
The changes are automatically synced to the respective server, which saves you a lot of time
on configuration and troubleshooting issues caused by human errors. IPAM offers DHCP
configuration support for remote-boot devices.

DNS Record Mismatch Detection, A & PTR Record Pairing
IPAM automatically detects and points out any mismatch in DNS forward and reverse record
entries. Any disparity in the record is highlighted for easy identification so that it can be quickly
fixed. Additionally, you can automatically create DNS PTR records when registering new devices
into DNS zones. This helps ensure that there are no DNS record mismatches and eliminates the
possibility of DNS issues due to human error.

Detailed Event Recording
IPAM automatically records all IP-related events and keeps a detailed activity log showing what
changed and when for quick and easy troubleshooting. You can greatly reduce troubleshooting
time by using these detailed activity logs to retrace events leading up to IP conflicts and other
IP related issues.

API Support
IPAM offers API support with CRUD (create, read, update, delete) operations to provide two-way
integration with third-party software. With CRUD operations, you will be able to automate the
creation, modification, and deletion of IP records. Additionally, you can create new subnets in
IPAM and create/update/remove DNS entries through the API.

Customizable Dashboard
IPAM provides a customizable dashboard that delivers the essential information you need in
a unified, at- a-glance view for streamlined management and quick troubleshooting. IPAM’s
customizable dashboard includes resources like Top 10 data, recent events, IP conflict monitor,
and so on. The IPAM dashboard also integrates with other SolarWinds management products
including Network Performance Monitor, Server & Application Monitor, Network Configuration
Manager, and more.

NOTE: A RAID 1 drive for server operating system, Orion Platform installation, and tempdb files is recommended. The
Orion installer needs 1GB on the drive where temporary Windows system or user variables are stored. Per Windows
standards, some common files may need to be installed on the same drive as your server operating system. For more
information, see Working with Temporary Directories in the SolarWinds Orion Common Components Administrator Guide.
The minimum server requirements listed assume default configuration. Significantly increasing the poll rate or statistic
collection rate could result in additional load on the server, which may require a larger CPU or additional memory.
