BT Diamond IP products are suitable for organisations currently using manual systems, commercial systems or basic software, such as spreadsheets, to track and manage their IP address and domain name space. Organisations and service providers managing more than 5,000 IP addresses can reap the benefits of automating IP address management through a single, centralised interface.

Customers experiencing the following challenges may also benefit from BT Diamond IP:

• Manual DHCP and DNS configuration errors, contributing to compromised security and network service outages. 
• Duplicate or erroneous address allocation, leading to premature IP address depletion.
• Increase in network devices, as a result of company acquisitions or due to migration to IP telephony and wireless connections.
• Inability to map IP address-based alert notification to location, subnet or switch port for diagnostics or access control.
• Migrating from IPv4 to IPv6 or managing an increase in IP-enabled devices due to mergers and acquisitions.
