IP Address Management (IPAM)

Tenant-scoped IPv4 subnet tracking with occupancy detection, reservations, conflicts, and address-space visualization.

Weavestream includes built-in, tenant-scoped IPv4 IPAM so teams can track subnet usage without leaving their documentation system.

What IPAM does

Manage per-company subnets with name, CIDR, optional VLAN, gateway, and notes
Auto-discover occupied addresses from asset fields of type IP_ADDRESS
Support manual reservations for infrastructure that is not represented as a full asset record
Detect and highlight conflicts when multiple assets share the same IP
Show utilization (used / free / total usable) for each subnet

Subnet Management

Admin users with write access to the company can:

Create, edit, archive, and restore subnets
Search/filter subnet lists and optionally include archived subnets
Navigate to subnet detail pages with utilization, conflicts, and occupancy context

Each subnet enforces normalized IPv4 CIDR input and uniqueness within the same company.

Occupants and Reservations

The subnet detail view combines two data sources:

Occupants (auto-discovered): assets whose IP_ADDRESS field falls inside the subnet range
Reservations (manual): named IP holds for devices or services not modeled as assets yet

Reservation writes are validated in real time and server-side:

IP must be valid IPv4
IP must be inside the target subnet
IP must be unique within the subnet's reservation set

Address Space View

Each subnet includes an address-space view that marks addresses as:

Free
Asset-occupied
Reserved
Conflict
Network/broadcast (for prefixes /30 and larger)

For very large ranges, IPAM automatically switches to a compact assigned-address list instead of rendering a full grid.

Client Portal Visibility

IPAM is also available in the client portal as a read-only experience:

Subnet list with utilization and conflict indicators
Per-subnet detail view of occupants, reservations, and address space

Permissions and Scope

Read operations require asset.read within the company
Write operations require asset.write within the company
Data is tenant-scoped by company

Auditability

Subnet and reservation mutations are written to the audit log, including create/update/archive/restore for subnets and create/update/delete for reservations.
