By adding the IPAM server to VMM, it is possible to monitor and even configure logical networks, their network sites, and IP pools. By integrating IPAM with VMM, you will be able to monitor all networks-both physical and software defined-within your organization. Tenants, such as Tenant A and Tenant B, should not use IPAM to configure their networks and must use VMM. Using IPAM data for reporting IPAM has a wealth of information for managing and monitoring your IP address space. Many basic pieces of information can be seen in the IPAM client interface; however, it is also possible to export data from IPAM in CSV format. Chapter 4 Getting ready It is advisable to create several new VMs in VMM for each Tenant VM Network to establish some trend data. You will need access to a Windows PC with Microsoft Excel 2013 installed to utilize the information exported in CSV format. How to do it... The following diagram shows you the high-level steps involved in this recipe: Overview of Recipe: Prerequisites (not covered by this recipe): Create several new VMs in each Tenant VM Network Have access to a Windows PC with Microsoft Excel 2013 installed Actions: Viewing the IP address data from VMM in IPAM Exporting the IP address data Using the exported data in Excel to create additional analysis 1. Open the IPAM client on the IPAM server and navigate to VIRTUALIZED IP ADDRESS SPACE, as shown in the following screenshot: IP ADDRESS SPACE IPv4 7 total IP Address Blocks Current view: IP Address Ranges IP Address Inventory Filter IP Ad
