SolarWinds IP Address Manager (IPAM)

Connection Requirements

SolarWinds IP Address Manager (IPAM) sits on top of SolarWinds Orion and tracks IP space, subnets, and DHCP/DNS bindings. This adapter collects IP nodes from the IPAM.IPNode entity, filtered to Used and Reserved statuses.

1 - IP

Hostname or IP address of the SolarWinds Orion server hosting IPAM.

2 - Port

Port number (optional, default: 17774). This is the SWIS JSON endpoint. Switch to 17778 only if you enable the legacy REST v1 toggle below.

3 - Username

The username which is going to be used by OctoXLabs CSAM PLATFORM Asset to fetch data from SolarWinds IPAM.

The user needs to have the "IPAM User" role on SolarWinds; a read-only "View" permission level is sufficient.

4 - Password

The Password of the provided username.

5 - Is secure

Use HTTPS for connection (optional, default: true).

6 - Use REST v1 (legacy)

Use the legacy /api/v1/query GET endpoint on port 17778 (optional, default: false). Only enable this if your SolarWinds version does not expose the SWIS JSON POST endpoint.

7 - Timeout

The amount of time (in seconds) to wait for API responses (optional, default: 30). Increase this if your network or Orion server configuration requires a longer timeout.

Attention

Please perform a connection test to ensure there is a valid connection to the SolarWinds IPAM host. When the discovery operation is finalized you will be able to see the details on the Assets page.
