Network Topology & IPAM
OpsGrip includes two powerful networking modules: Network Topology for visual mapping and IPAM (IP Address Management) for tracking your IP space.
Network Topology
What It Does
Network Topology gives you a drag-and-drop canvas to build a visual map of your network infrastructure. See how devices connect, identify single points of failure, and document your network for your team.
Building Your Map
- Go to Network Topology in the sidebar
- Drag device icons onto the canvas
- Draw connections between devices
- Label everything
Device Icons
OpsGrip includes 200+ device icons across 20 categories: - Routers, switches, firewalls - Servers, storage arrays, UPS - Access points, modems, load balancers - Printers, phones, workstations - Cloud services, virtual machines - And many more
Why It Matters
A clear network map means faster troubleshooting, easier handoffs between team members, and better planning for infrastructure changes. When something breaks at 2 AM, the on-call person can see exactly what connects to what.
IPAM
What It Does
IPAM tracks your IP address space — which IPs are assigned, which are available, and what's on each one.
Features
- IP Heatmap Grid — Visual grid showing 254 IPs at a glance. See which are in use, which are free, and which have conflicts.
- Subnets — Organize your IP space by subnet
- IP Addresses — Detailed records for each assigned IP (hostname, MAC address, device type, notes)
- VLANs — Track VLAN assignments and configurations
- DNS — DNS record management
- Scan History — History of network scans and changes
Tabs
IPAM is organized into tabs: Subnets, IP Addresses, VLANs, DNS, and Scan History. Each tab has its own view with filters and search.
Tips
- Start your topology map with the core — router, firewall, main switch — then expand outward
- Update the map whenever you add or move equipment. An outdated network map is worse than no map
- Use IPAM's heatmap to quickly spot IP conflicts or find available addresses
- Both modules are optional — disable them in Module Management if your team doesn't manage network infrastructure
