Refer to the following table to understand the fields in the above screen.

FieldsDescription

Name

A label or name that is assigned to a IPAM.

IP Address

The numerical label assigned to each device connected to a computer network is called an "IP address." An IP address is typically represented in the format XXX.XXX.XXX.XX, where each "XXX" is a number ranging from 0 to 255, and the "XX" is a similar two-digit number. IP addresses are used to uniquely identify and locate devices on a network.

Trigger

You may want to assign the servers to a custom Trigger if target server is in an Isolated network or if you want to setup a scalable infrastructure. You will only see available Triggers in this field.

CIDR

Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) enables efficient allocation and management of IP addresses by utilizing variable-length subnet masking to group and organize IP addresses in a flexible and scalable manner.

· Collecting server inventory like pending updates, installed applications, local administrators etc.

· Active: Enables monitoring for server

· Maintenance: Enables maintenance mode for server and disables all notifications

· Reconnect: Restarts all collectors for server
