phpIPAM
What it is
phpIPAM is a free, open-source web application for managing IP addresses in a self-hosted installation. It supports IPv4 and IPv6, organizes addresses into sections and subnets, and displays available subnet space. Its network features include VLAN and VRF management, NAT, rack management, an IPv4/IPv6 calculator, automatic subnet scanning, and IP status checks. Administrators can set group permissions for sections and subnets, and the feature list includes domain authentication through AD, LDAP, and Radius. PowerDNS integration and a REST API are also listed. URL rewriting is required for the API to work, and its documentation recommends SSL because Basic authentication credentials sent without encryption can be intercepted. Installation requires Apache with PHP or Nginx with PHP-FPM, plus a MySQL server. Stable installation files are available through GitHub and SourceForge, with development releases through GitHub. The project provides a demo installation and directs community support to GitHub. It also lists help with custom development, integration, bug fixes, and installation or upgrade work.
