[June 18, 2013] SolarWinds adds new capabilities to SolarWinds IP Address Manager Tweet Jun 18, 2013 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- SolarWinds, Inc., a provider of IT management software, has added active IP address conflict detection and integrated endpoint tracking to SolarWinds IP Address Manager, or IPAM, an automated DHCP, DNS and IP space management solution. SolarWinds IPAM enables users to manage, monitor, alert, and report on an entire IP address infrastructure from a centralized and web-based user interface. It optimizes IP space and avoids IP address conflicts with automatic scans and preventive alerts, and coordinates team access with user delegation and role-based permissions. With new IP address conflict detection, SolarWinds IPAM automatically detects duplicate IP addresses and sends conflict alerts for both static and DHCP environments and resolves the conflicts using detailed IP address connection information. SolarWinds IPAM now also integrates with SolarWinds User Device Tracker (UDT), an automated switch port monitoring and mapping solution, providing integrated endpoint tracking to improve troubleshooting and network access protection and to allow users to view IP addresses, switch port details, and user logins in a single window. With SolarWinds UDT, it locates offending devices and suspicious users associated with an IP address and leverages current and historical endpoint connection data to resolve network issues, the company said. According to the company, the SolarWinds IP Address Manager features: centralized IP address management, monitoring, alerting and reporting from a web-based interface; integrated multi-vendor DHCP and DNS management and monitoring, including Microsoft, Cisco, and now BIND; visibility into IP space usage with historical tracking information; automated, scheduled IP address scanning with customizable intervals; and unified dashboard for 'at-a-glance' IP address troubleshooting. http://www.datamonitor.com Republication or redistribution, including by framing or similar means, is expressly prohibited without prior written consent.
