NetBox is an open-source web application that serves as the source of truth for network infrastructure, combining IP address management (IPAM) and data center infrastructure management (DCIM). It provides a curated data model, REST APIs, and a plugin architecture to power network automation workflows.
Use cases
- document network infrastructure as a source of truth
- manage IP addresses, prefixes, VLANs and VRFs
- track data center racks, devices and cabling
- power network automation from an intended-state model
- replace spreadsheets for network documentation
- generate device configurations from infrastructure data
When to choose
- you need a network source of truth to drive automation tools
- you want combined IPAM and DCIM in one platform
- you need REST APIs and plugins for infrastructure data
When to avoid
- you need a tool that directly configures network devices
- you want a general-purpose CMDB unrelated to networking
