Components
IPControl is a highly scalable, distributed solution that consists of four major components:
•
InControl Executive – The central management system responsible for initiating work
requests or recording the results of completed requests. There is typically one
InControl Executive per IPControl system.
•
InControl Agents – Lightweight, distributed processes that execute work requests
from the InControl Executive. The InControl Agents are the entities that interface
directly with DHCP servers, DNS servers, or Network Devices such as routers. There
can be any number of InControl Agents distributed on a network. They may be
located wherever is optimal for the network topology.
•
IPControl Database – The central repository that stores information and auditing data
about IP network space. This database is under the control of the InControl
Executive.
•
IPControl Administrative Interface – A Web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI),
hosted on the InControl Executive that allows administrators to control the InControl
system.
