Integration with IPmanager 6

IPmanager is a control panel that can be used for IP address management. IP addresses are allocated to use domain names. IPmanager allows:

• it may happen, that one IP address is allocated to two servers. With IPmanager this situation cannot occur;
• the control panel sets up and configures the name server for PTR management.

VMmanager 6 and DCImanager 6 platforms have a built-in module for address space management — IPmanager 6. To configure integration with this module:

1. To allow access only a certain pool of IP addresses, create a pool in VMmanager 6 or DCImanager 6 with the suffix public. For example, DNS6_public.

2. Create an administrator account named ipmgr5@example.com in VMmanager 6 or DCImanager 6.

   ipmgr5@example.com is not an example, but the exact name that you need to specify when creating an account.
3. In integrated platform and BILLmanager:
   
   1. Enter Integration → IPmanager .
   2. Specify the settings for integration:
      

      1. URL — https://platform.example.com/api/ipmgr5/v3/ipmgr

         Comments to the URL

         platform.example.com — domain name or IP address of the server with VMmanager 6 or DCImanager 6
         

      2. Username:

         • • to allow the control panel to access only a certain pool of IP addresses, specify pool_XXX;

             Comments

             XXX — pool prefix in VMmanager 6 or DCImanager 6. For example, for the DNS6_public pool, specify the username pool_DNS6.
           • to allow the control panel to access the entire address space, specify an arbitrary user name.
      3. Password — password of the ipmgr5@example.com user.
      4. In the Synchronization of IP-addresses section leave the Administrator login and Administrator password fields blank.
   3. Press Ok button.
