Typology
Next to iTop's topology elements, TeemIp proposes different typology classes to predefine the type of a few IP objects.
Like all topology elements, these IP ones are managed through the Typology configuration menu of the Data Administration module.
IP Block Type
IP Block Types will allow administrators to define the main usage that an IP Block can have: user space, data centre space, interconnections… Name of type being defined through a free text attribute, administrators can really create what suits their needs best.
IP Block Type Properties
| Name | Type | Mandatory? |
|---|---|---|
| Name | Alphanumeric string | Yes |
| Description | Multiline character string | No |
Updating an IP Block Type
In the Typology configuration menu of the Data administration module, under the IP space typology configuration chapter, click on the IP Block Type badge to list all IP Address Usages and select the one you'd like to edit.
IP Range Usage
IP Range Usages will allow administrators to document the usage made of IP ranges in their environment: Printers, Consoles, DHCP pools… Name of usage being defined through a free text attribute, administrator can really create what suits their needs best.
