摘要： Techniques and technologies for an IP address management (IPAM) system to monitor the usage of IP addresses across regions in one or more networks of resources. The IPAM system may be used to allocate IP addresses to resources in networks and track what IP addresses are being used by resources or available for allocation. The IPAM system may periodically obtain usage information that indicates actual, current IP address usage by the resources in the networks, identify differences between the current IP address usage and an inventory maintained by the IPAM service, and reconcile the differences. Additionally, the IPAM system may further respond to network administrator queries about their resource and IP address usage. Further, the IPAM system may emit various utilization metrics to the network administrators which may be tied to alarms or alerts around non-compliant resources or IP addresses.

摘要： Techniques and technologies for an Internet Protocol (IP) address management (IPAM) system to track and manage IP address workflows in a network. The IPAM system can be used to define and enforce management policies or rules regarding IP address management, such as allocation policies, refill policies, and so forth. For instance, the IPAM system can enforce allocation policies that define rules to allow or deny allocation of IP addresses based on types of resources for which the IP addresses are requested, registered user accounts that are requesting the IP addresses, the purpose of the resources receiving the IP addresses, and so forth. Additionally, the IPAM system can enforce refill policies that define rules for replenishing inventories of IP addresses that have been allocated for different domains in the network. The IPAM system can improve the management of IP address workflows by enforcing policy and tracking IP address workflows in networks.
