IPAM: IP address management and network documentation

Notory's network module manages IP addresses, subnets, VLANs, WLAN as well as ports and services in a structured way and directly on the asset inventory. Address assignment stays traceable and collision-free, and every device hangs on its address, its segment and its site.

IP addresses & subnets

Document IP addresses and subnets with usage and ownership. Free and assigned addresses are visible at a glance - an end to the address list in a spreadsheet.

VLANs & WLAN

Map VLANs and WLAN structures and assign them to sites and segments. That way the logical network view matches physical reality.

Ports & services

Keep ports and services per device and make connections visible - useful for operations, troubleshooting and documentation.

Linked to assets

IP, VLAN and service hang on the asset in a typed way. Together with auto-discovery the network documentation stays current instead of ageing.

In practice

Example: a /16 network across four sites

A company with four sites documents its entire /16 network in Notory: subnets per site, VLANs for servers, clients and guests, and the WLAN structure. Free and assigned addresses are recognisable at a glance, every IP hangs on its device. When a server moves, its address travels with the asset - the network documentation stays current instead of ageing in a spreadsheet.

Questions on IPAM and network

What is IPAM?

IPAM (IP address management) is the structured management of IP addresses, subnets and related network objects. In Notory, IPAM is connected directly to the asset inventory, so address, VLAN, service and device are documented together.

Does Notory map VLANs and subnets?

Yes. You document subnets, VLANs and WLAN structures and assign them to sites and segments. Assigned and free addresses are recognisable, and every device hangs on its address.

Does the network documentation stay current automatically?

Together with auto-discovery, devices on the network are detected and adopted as assets, so the documentation stays current. The REST API additionally lets you automate upkeep.
