Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds IP Address Manager (IPAM)
Our IT personnel use SolarWinds IP Address Manager to scan the local subnet of a site to determine where devices are located that are either not responding to ping because of DNS or are on a static IP and may not have a name that resolves. We can use the information returned by IPAM to determine if DNS is responding, how long ago a device was last seen, quickly launch a browser for that IP, etc.
Pros
- Specific IP alerting
- IP address tracking
- Easily find and resolve IP conflicts and determine which devices are conflicting
Cons
- If DNS isn't working particularly well, IPAM doesn't work particularly well
- IPs seem to get "stuck" and will show as present when they're not
- Quicker resolution through quick device locating, less explaining how to find an IP to the users.
- Quickly find the source of IP conflicts remotely, so no travel and no skill required for onsite troubleshooting.
