Description: IPAM, or IP Address Management, is a comprehensive method for planning, managing, and tracking IP address spaces within a network. This system enables network administrators to efficiently assign IP addresses, avoiding conflicts and ensuring that each device on the network has a unique address. IPAM not only deals with IP address allocation but also includes subnet management, integration with DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), and DNS (Domain Name System), facilitating the management of network infrastructure. With the exponential growth of connected devices on the Internet, the need for a robust IP address management system has become crucial. IPAM provides visibility and control over IP address usage, allowing organizations to optimize their network resources and enhance security. Additionally, many IPAM solutions offer advanced features such as task automation, reporting capabilities, and integration with other network management tools, making them an essential part of modern network administration.
