Share IP address Management Database

When you create an IP address Management database, you can select a shared location to save to the database. If you select a shared server, any computer in your network with the SolarWinds IP address Management tool installed can access, view, and update this data.

If you have an existing database that you want to move to a shared server, complete the following task.

  1. Copy the IP-Address-Management.IPDB file from the SolarWinds directory where you installed the executables to the shared server where you want the database to reside.
    The default installation directory is \Program Files\SolarWinds\Engineer's Toolset.
  2. Open SolarWinds IP address Management with which you want to load this database.
  3. Click File > Open IP address Management Database, and then browse to and select the IP-Address-Management.IPDB on your shared server.

This database becomes your default until you change to a different database.
