Title: IPAM

Hello
would it be possible to add something like
https://www.phpipam.net/

to manage the IP Range and the device in the network?

Since it is a PHP software, it may run on OPNsense.

@fabian would be nice it talks together  too
on opnSense i define a Port with ip Range and DHCP Range, and this information would be be miracle - or code - in this tool ;-)

To be honest guys,

how many networks / IPs do you own? For a simple class C home network, you can use static ip mappings and use the description field and for larger networks, the firewall is the wrong place for ip management.

It is a firewall! Every additional service opens new chances of vulnerabilities.

I run phpipam on a dedicated vmware. Beyond webserver and php which is included in opnsense it needs a datebase and for the size of networks where you need an IPAM, it needs some power for subnet calculations and visualization.

@hbc
thanks for your feedback, just a small question - how the connection is working phpimap - opnSense.
or you define a vlan on both place?

phpIPAM is for documentation. Without further automatization, you have to document your vlan in phpIPAM and create it on your network (switches and firewalls).

I added scripts for DHCP and DNS, so static dhcp entries can be exported to ISC DHCP and ISC BIND server.
