IPAM Function Request

athornfam2

I am requesting IPAM functionality to compliment the Networks and Racks in ITFlow

johnny

This could be quite useful! ill look into this one

johnny Appreciate that. That'll help us get rid of a IPAM specific tool and integrate that into the asset/rack/network.

wrongecho

athornfam2 What IPAM tool are you using? My only exposure is the one built into Windows Server and its meh.

athornfam2

wrongecho phpIPAM and Netbox. Ironically my boss suggested the built-in Server one but I was kind of eh about it too.

athornfam2

Does this have to be discussed internally or would this be hitting the tasks soon? Would be super helpful as we have a full-blown windows server running IPAM.

johnny

ill add it to our tasks, havent looked much into it at the moment

johnny

Added to our tasks, no timeline for this as this is low on our priority as far as development goes. It will take some planning on how we will implement it into the existing infrastructure. Totally open to Pull Requests Mockups and ideas if you or anyone wants to share.

Appreciate that @johnny

Would this tie in with an auto asset discovery?

wrongecho

Riffking Not necessarily? But we do have scripts for pulling in some assets (currently UniFi, Hyper-V, and TRMM but this is relatively easy to adapt to most other things). ITFlow itself isn't going to go polling your network though, no.

Adding my +1 to this as an MSP. Managing IP allocations across multiple client sites in external spreadsheets is painful. Having it natively in ITFlow, linked to clients and network equipment, would be a real time-saver. Looking forward to seeing this implemented!

johnny

Yeah I def want to do this, not quite sure on how I want to implement it just yet
