IPAM & RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

Automate resource allocation and eliminate conflicts

The challenge

Manually managing IP addresses, prefixes, VLANs, ASNs, and other numbered resources is time-consuming, error-prone, and creates operational bottlenecks that slow everyone down.

Duplicate resource assignments are common when multiple teams manually allocate IPs or VLANs from spreadsheets, leading to conflicts that require time-consuming cleanup.
Finding available space is painful when engineers are forced to poke through Excel files and Confluence pages just to identify the next available IP block or VLAN ID.
Manual lookups waste time whenever someone provisions a device, expands the data center, or onboards a client, leading to slowdowns on critical projects.
Conflicts across network segments happen because there’s no centralized system tracking resource assignments across different contexts like VRFs, security zones, or cloud environments.

The solution

Infrahub’s Resource Manager and IPAM capabilities automate resource allocation and eliminate conflicts. Instead of manual lookups, your team can confidently pull numbered resources like IPs, prefixes, VLANs, and ASNs from managed pools that automatically assign the next available resource.

Infrahub’s branch-agnostic resource pools ensure no duplicates occur, even when multiple engineers work in different branches simultaneously. Combined with robust IPAM features, you can model distinct, isolated contexts for managing resources across on-premises, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments.

Whether you’re provisioning devices, expanding data centers, or onboarding clients, Infrahub makes resource allocation idempotent, consistent, and fast. What used to take hours becomes a simple, automated step.

RESOURCE MANAGER

Automate resource allocation

Stop digging through spreadsheets to find the next available IP or VLAN. Infrahub’s Resource Manager lets you define pools for IPs, prefixes, VLANs, ASNs, and other numbered resources then automatically allocate resources with no duplicates or conflicts. Request the next available resource through the API or UI, and Infrahub handles the rest.

IP ASSET MANAGEMENT

Manage IP resources with precision

Infrahub provides comprehensive IPAM features, including namespaces, that let you model distinct, isolated contexts for your IP resources. Whether you’re managing hybrid designs across on-premises and cloud, handling multi-cloud address spaces, or ensuring regional compliance, Infrahub gives you the flexibility to organize and track IP resources exactly how your network demands.

IPAM TREE & VISUALIZATION

See what's available at a glance

Navigate your IP hierarchy with an intuitive tree view that shows you exactly where available space exists. Infrahub displays unallocated IP space inline with existing resources, clearly distinguishing what’s available from what’s in use. Click any available space to instantly open a pre-filled creation form, turning what used to require manual calculations into a single click.

BRANCH-AWARE ALLOCATION

Work in parallel without conflict

Resource pools managed by Infrahub’s Resource Manager are branch-agnostic. That means Infrahub tracks resource requests and assignments across all branches, guaranteeing that the same IP, VLAN, or ASN is never allocated twice, even when teams work in parallel on different changes.
