Global Internet Protocol Address Management (IPAM) Market - 2008-2012
1. Introduction
Internet Protocol Address Management (IPAM) is employed to accurately model IP address,
subnet assignments, domains and networks; with the purpose of tracking, planning and
managing IP address space. It also helps in building DNS (Domain Name System) and DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) configurations on a network. DHCP and DNS network
services provide automated IP address assignment and host name lookup services.
Globally, the transition from circuit switched networks to packet switched networks (IP-
based networks) is taking place at a fast rate. An increasing number of applications that
transfer data, voice and video are utilizing IP-based networks. This transition is resulting in
increasing dependence by companies for business operations on IP-based networks. These
IP-based networks carry the risk of reliability, security and downtime. The companies are
adopting IP-based network management solutions to reduce these risks.
Also, the introduction of IPV6 networks, which use 128-bit address system, bring more
complexity to the IP management table. This is because of the larger address pools,
different sub-netting techniques, and lengthy addresses. Managing IPV6 networks with
traditional ways of manual or spreadsheet methods becomes cumbersome for the
companies. Therefore, companies are implementing IPAM solutions to overcome these
problems.
Further, the number of devices that are based on IP address is increasing significantly. The
companies require IP address for web services, wireless communication devices, mobile
computers, virtual machines, point of sale devices, IP telephony, etc. To efficiently manage
