• Stressed by growing complexity
- Mobility and IP device growth
- IPv6 and DNSSEC
- Data center virtualization
• Hidden operational risk factors
- Hard to find and resolve problems
- Over dependence on key employees
- No effective auditing

Analyst Research

“DNS and IPAM are not options, they are critical”

“Overarching control and auditing of DNS and

DHCP are fundamental requirements. It is no
longer ‘good enough’ to have services scattered
about the network unless we can control them.”

“To prevent your network from becoming an IT

bottleneck, you must build a utility-grade network…by
transitioning off commodity hardware to appliances
and investing in proper IPAM tools.”
