Visualization for managing multiple IP address management systems
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a processor of an IP address management manager system, wherein the processor is configured to;
communicate with a plurality of IP address management systems to determine IP address management information managed by each of the IP address management systems, wherein a first IP address management system is in secure communication with the IP address management manager system, and a second IP address management system in secure communication with the IP address management manager system, and wherein the first IP address management system manages a first subset of an IP address space and the second IP address management system manages a second subset of the IP address space; and
generate a graphical visualization of the 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,wherein 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; and
wherein in the event that an overlap in the IP address space managed by the plurality of IP address management systems is indicated, the first subset managed by the first IP address management system overlaps with the second subset managed by the second IP address management system; and
a memory coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with instructions.
