Before start monitoring IPAM, you should create a new IPAM entry.
1. Click to IPAM on the left pane.
2. On IPAM Management screen, click Add (+) button on the right top section.
3. You will get the fields as follows.
Refer to the following table to understand the fields in the above screen.
Fields | Description |
---|---|
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. |
Inventory Interval | This option defines frequency of Inventory Collector. Inventory Collector is responsible for: · Collecting server inventory like pending updates, installed applications, local administrators etc. · Collecting module inventory like virtual machines, web sites, databases etc. · Hardware Health Monitoring · Windows Firewall Logs · Change Tracking |
Debug | To choose debug such as: · Off · Inventory: Only collects debug logs for Inventory Collector · Monitoring: Only collects debug logs for Monitoring Collector · On: Collects debug logs for Inventory and Monitoring Collector |
Status | To choose a server status such as: · Active: Enables monitoring for server · Maintenance: Enables maintenance mode for server and disables all notifications · Reconnect: Restarts all collectors for server · Disabled: Disables monitoring for server |
Logging Type | Logging Levels determine the frequency at which statistic queries occur, the length of time statistical data is stored in the database and the type of statistical data that is collected. |
