opAddress
IP Address Management
Eliminate IP address conflicts and regain control of your network addressing. opAddress is a lightweight IPAM solution that periodically scans your subnets, discovers address usage, and provides quick, easy editing and reallocation, all integrated with your NMIS device inventory.
Architecture
opAddress Architecture
IP address discovery, tracking, and subnet management, deeply integrated with the NMIS data layer.
Capabilities
The IP address management essentials your network needs
Automated discovery, visual subnet management, and conflict detection, without enterprise IPAM complexity.
Automated IP Discovery & Scanning
Periodically scan your configured subnets to discover which IP addresses are in use, which are available, and which devices are occupying them, all without manual audits or spreadsheet maintenance.
Subnet Utilisation Visualisation
See at a glance how each subnet is utilised. Colour-coded views show used, available, and reserved addresses, making capacity planning and address allocation fast and intuitive.
IP Conflict Detection
Detect duplicate IP assignments and rogue devices before they cause network outages. opAddress flags conflicts automatically and alerts your team so issues are resolved proactively.
Quick Address Editing & Reallocation
Reassign, reserve, or release IP addresses directly from the opAddress interface. The lightweight design means your team can manage address space efficiently without enterprise IPAM complexity.
Historical Address Tracking
Track IP address usage over time, see when addresses were allocated, changed, or freed. Invaluable for troubleshooting, auditing, and compliance reporting.
NMIS Device Correlation
Discovered IP addresses are linked to NMIS-managed devices automatically, giving you a unified view of which monitored devices occupy which addresses, no manual cross-referencing.
NMIS Ecosystem
How opAddress integrates with NMIS
A complete picture of your network, combining device monitoring with IP address intelligence.
NMIS Device Data
opAddress correlates scanned IP addresses with NMIS device inventory automatically. Each discovered address is linked to its corresponding monitored node, interface, and device type.
opCharts Dashboards
Visualise subnet utilisation and address space health on opCharts dashboards alongside your network performance data. Build combined views for addressing and performance.
Lightweight by Design
opAddress handles the IP address management tasks most organisations need without enterprise IPAM overhead. It complements NMIS rather than replacing dedicated IPAM where needed.
