| Netmagis: Introduction |
Netmagis is a complete application, which allows a network
administrator to:
- manage IPv4 and IPv6 addresses;
- generate data for your DNS server and
get BIND
zone files always up to date and consistant;
- delegate DNS management to other network
administrators or every non-specialist of DNS management;
- specify groups of users and very fine access
privileges on address (even until every IPv4 or IPv6
address), on domains, etc;
- support advanced configurations such as
split-DNS (or BIND views);
- manage DHCP allocations (both static or dynamic)
with profiles to parametrize network boot;
- use your existing LDAP directory and/or CAS
server to manage accounts and authentication, or manage
accounts with the Netmagis database;
- manage a large number of networks, users
domains, DHCP profiles, etc.;
- visualize with automatically generated network
maps your network topology (switched or routed);
- give access on these maps to users;
- assign VLAN to equipment interfaces via
a simple Web interface (for Cisco, HP or Juniper
equipments);
- delegate VLAN assignment to other network
administrators or every non-specialist of equipment
management;
- access to traffic graphs that you have
specified on your equipments.
- locate hosts by IP address, MAC address or
network equipement port
Netmagis uses a database describing your networks, privileges that
you give to groups of users, DHCP profiles that you want to assign
to DHCP ranges or hosts, etc. Netmagis is de facto a true network information system.
