IP Address Management
The Jellyfish IP Address Management (IPAM) functionality provides a solution for planning, managing, and tracking the allocation and usage of IP addresses within an organisation’s network. It provides organisations with a centralised tool for managing both IPv4 and IPv6 address spaces, ensuring that IP addresses are distributed efficiently and effectively across an organisation’s infrastructure. The Jellyfish IPAM solution is closely integrated with the Jellyfish Configuration Management Database (CMDB) functionality, streamlining the process of assigning, tracking, and maintaining IP addresses and associated network configurations for devices and assets across an organisation.
Key Benefits
The key benefits of the Jellyfish IPAM module include:
- Simplified Network Management: The Jellyfish IPAM module provide a centralised platform for managing simple and complex network address spaces. This makes it easier for organisations to manage and maintain their organisations IT infrastructure.
- Improved Network Security: By monitoring for unauthorised devices and address conflicts, an organisation can identify potential vulnerabilities, detect unauthorised access, and maintain network integrity across their entire network.
- Scalability and Flexibility: As networks grow and evolve, so does the complexity of their IP address space. The Jellyfish IPAM module supports the scalability of large and dynamic networks by enabling the seamless integration of new IP addresses, subnets, and network segments.
- Enhanced Reporting and Monitoring: With built-in reporting and monitoring features, the Jellyfish IPAM module provides real-time insights into the allocation and usage of IP addresses. This helps organisations identify trends, optimize address usage, and proactively manage their IP space.
