IP Address Location

Solution to Reconcile your IP Address Theory with the Realty

 

• As a administrator, do you know which IP/MAC address is plugged on your network?
• Do you know when this address has been seen active for the last time?
• In case of technical interventions these issues are of a relevant matter!

IPLocator brings you this information so that you improve your security and the quality of your job. Without IPLocator, your company can loose a lot of money and be temporarily paralyzed. Because your job is to deploy a reliable and performing network, IPLocator is your partner in action.

IPLocator is a network tool that offers industry leading network reconciliation capabilities. IPLocator provides precise and comprehensive views of the network connections. IPLocator brings a global vision with a centralized analysis of your addresses location. Automatic documentation, diagramming, problem identification and notification. Scheduled and on demand reports and graphics from a WEB interface.

The best practice to reconcile your IP addresses inventory with your network reality includes:

Automation of the network devices documentation. IPLocator discoveries bring up IP/MAC information by Switch, Slot and Port number, DNS name of the device, VLAN of the equipments, port status and name.
i.e. the removal of an infected station becomes really easy and fast in order to provide an optimum reactivity to security alerts.

Traceability of mobile stations. IPLocator identifies the changes of IP or MAC addresses location on the network. This brings a global view of the company’s stations mobility by address offset —switch, slot, port—, a VLAN offset of an IP and/or a MAC address.
i.e. the history information displayed shows when, where and who was connected and is connected -easy tracking of IP and MAC mobility. The data storage provides a time identification of the mobile stations.

Reports & Statistics. IPLocator produces comparative reports and statistics of successive discoveries. That reporting enables network administrators to quickly detect network connections mobility and usage. Thanks to its personalization capacities, IPLocator permits you to build reports based on your precise requirements.
i.e. Addresses and VLAN offset, port occupancy rate, cpu load, unseen IP/MAC addresses on the network during a certain time. Unused ports in a lap of time.

Comparison of the theory with the reality. IPLocator permits to compare the theory of your physical and logical topology with the reality of your network. IPLocator brings a real vision of the IP/MAC addresses location and status on your network.
i.e. at this state, you know how your network model has evolved and in which direction you want to continue your actions.

By applying such a method, IPLocator can help you to have full control on who is connected, on where equipments are connected, on whom -and why- is moving around the network.

IPLocator help you to maintain a manageable size of your IP addressing plan by checking which fixed addresses have not been seen active for a long time and then be able to reuse them. IPLocator alerts you on changes. IPLocator tracks network assets and improves information on your CMDB. IPLocator is easy to use, to manage and to deploy.
