IP Address Management |
|
|
| Providing
IP addresses to every device on the network is a necessity for reliable
communications in today’s e-business world. As the unique identifiers that
allow network traffic to be routed correctly to its destination, it is
imperative to effectively track them and properly assign them. However,
IP addresses often are managed manually in an Excel spreadsheet - resulting
in wasted time, duplicate or erroneous IP addresses, and an unreliable
network. Even if an organization moves to the Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol, it still faces the problem of controlling multiple sites centrally
and holding users accountable for network usage.
Check Point Meta IP builds
a reliable IP address and name space for the enterprise by automating the
IP address process and managing all DNS and DHCP services across large,
multi-site networks, promoting greater network reliability and control.
Meta IP provides enterprises with centralized management, an integrated
LDAP data store, standards-based DNS and DHCP services, as well as the
unique ability to match employees to dynamic IP addresses. By integrating
all IP address and name information – as well as user information – enterprises
can create a solid foundation for network connectivity. |
