  • Patent number: 10652207
    Abstract: Techniques for cloud network automation for IP address and DNS record management are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system, process, and/or computer program product for cloud network automation for IP address and DNS record management includes receiving at a cloud platform appliance (e.g., a virtual or physical IP address and/or DNS management appliance) a cloud request related to a resource (e.g., a virtual or physical resource) in a cloud environment from a global cloud manager; and processing the cloud request at the cloud platform appliance to determine whether to proxy the cloud request to another cloud platform appliance or a grid master or to locally process the cloud request, wherein a storage of infrastructure metadata information for IP address and/or DNS record management is updated based on the cloud request.

  • Patent number: 9548904
    Abstract: Visualization for managing multiple IP address management systems is provided. In some embodiments, visualization for managing multiple IP address management systems for an IP address management manager system includes communicating with a plurality of IP address management systems to determine IP address management information managed by each of the IP address management systems; and generating a graphical visualization of an IP address space managed by the plurality of IP address management systems based on the IP address management information managed by each of the IP address management systems, in which the graphical visualization of the IP address space managed by the plurality of IP address management systems indicates any gaps or overlaps in the IP address space managed by the plurality of IP address management systems.

  • Patent number: 9065857
    Abstract: Managing multiple IP address management systems is provided. In some embodiments, managing multiple IP address management systems includes providing an IP address management (IPAM) manager system for receiving a configuration command to manage a first IP address management system; receiving a configuration command to manage a second IP address management system; receiving a join request from the first IP address management system; and receiving a join request from the second IP address management system, in which the IP address management manager system is in communication with the first IP address management system and the second IP address management system for managing each of the first IP address management system and the second IP address management system.
