DHCP, DNS and IP Address Management (IPAM)

How often do we take DHCP, DNS and IPAM for granted, trusting these vital services to a secondary function on our existing servers? Effective delivery and management of DHCP and DNS and IPAM is vital to the security, integrity and reliability of our networks. These essential network functions deserve closer attention.

BlueCat Networks Adonis DNS/DHCP solutions and Proteus IPAM solutions really are in a class of their own. Our engineers are very impressed with BlueCat Networks, the build quality of their hardware and software, and the significant benefits we can deliver with their solutions.
