With the continued proliferation of IP devices, the existing IPv4 address space is becoming an increasingly scarce resource. More organizations are considering deployment of IPv6 to address this issue and to leverage other benefits of IPv6. Managing the IPv4/IPv6 address space resource requires an advanced tool that intelligently allocates, assigns and tracks the address blocks and individual IP addresses deployed on modern IP networks. Utilizing a tool like IPControl which provides a logical, intuitive user interface, with reports and alerts on the current and projected address utilization, enterprises and service providers can quickly and cost-effectively plan and implement their deployment of IPv6 address space, while effectively managing the ever-changing IP address needs that they face every day. IPControl is a highly scalable tool for managing both IPv4 and IPv6 address space and associated DHCP and DNS configurations, providing a solid management foundation for IPv4 networks, as well as mixed IPv4-IPv6 and IPv6-only networks.
