Hi,

as you can see phpIPAM moved to its own domain, phpaipam.net. Please update your links as all content will be available on this site only!

Dear all, I am happy to announce new version of phpipam IP address management – version 0.7. It features completely redesigned UI based on Twitter’s bootstrap, less Javascript and more features. Many bugs have been squashed, features improved and it also brings lots of new features, amongst them:

• Unlimited number of subnetting levels;
• OpenLDAP authentication support;
• Custom subnet and VLAN fields;
• Show Subnet name instead of IP address;
• Option to disable strict mode;

You can demo it here: http://demo.phpipam.net/
You can download it on sourceforge site: phpipam-0.7.

Be sure to read upgrade / install notes, because we moved to mod_rewrite apache mod, which requires the following changes:

• Apache2 must have mod_rewrite support
• “AllowOverride all” must be set in vhost config for mod_rewrite to work
• Set BASE in config.php (if in root not needed, otherwise /phpipam/ or your own directory)
• RewriteBase /BASE/ in .htaccess (same as above)

Special thanks to following donors:

• Dicom Datautveckling AB
• Tatung Baby
• Suretec Systems Ltd.

Special thank also to Hosterdam team (http://www.hosterdam.com) for VPS server that is used for development of phpIPAM and for demo site. And also to all users that filed a bug report / feature report and helped with feature testing!

I recently noticed that phpIPAM is available also through FreeBSD ports (Thanks to Jake Smith):

cd /usr/ports/net-mgmt/phpipam && make install clean

Check your package managers, if it is available on some other unix distros post it here for reference…

I have received a request for help on manual installation of phpIPAM on debian linux, so I decided to write a small how-to if anyone else has problems or is not so familiar with linux distributions and environment. I have used fresh default debian 6.0 as distribution because it is widely used, I believe on ubuntu linux procedure should be very similar, except maybe for locations of some config files.

I have used the following settings for installation:

• Fresh debian installation
• MySQL server not yet installed and no root pass configured
• Apache not installed and configured
• phpipam will be installed in default directory (no vhosts) under /phpipam/ folder

If you already have MySQL/apache set you can skip point 3.

Installation procedure:

1.) Preparing environment and installing required apps

Update your sources (apt-get update) and install Apache, php and mysql server:

apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php5 php5-gmp php-pear php5-mysql php5-ldap

After all is installed and the apache server is running, you need to decide weather you will be running it under vhost or in subdirectory or root directory. For this guide I will have it in subdirectory http://server/phpipam/, so do the following:

cd /var/www/
wget http://freefr.dl.sourceforge.net/project/phpipam/phpipam-0.7.tar
tar -xvf phpipam-0.7.tar
rm phpipam-0.7.tar
cd phpipam

At this point you should have all the files and applications installed for phpipam.

2.) Setting phpipam configuration

Edit config.php and select MySQL user/pass you wish to use for phpipam and set rewriteBase to /phpipam/,and set your database details (select user/pass you wish to have for phpipam and database name – you can also leave it as it is):

vi config.php
$db['host'] = “localhost”;
$db['user'] = “phpipam”;
$db['pass'] = “phpipamadmin”;
$db['name'] = “phpipam”;

also set rewrite base in config.php (If you have it under root directory of your webserver than you can skip it)

define(‘BASE’, “/phpipam/”);

and in .htaccess

RewriteBase /phpipam/

3.) Setting up database

Now you need to setup MySQL database, if this is the first time you installed it (if you already have mysql running with root pass then you can skip this):

mysqladmin -u root password NEWPASSWORD

4.) Mod rewrite settings

Make sure apache supports mod_rewrite for web server, if it does not you will get errors /install/ not found (http 404) and similar. This means that either apache is not set to use .htaccess rewrites, or that you did not specify the rewritebase in step2 correctly.

Search for Directory directive in default apache config and add/change it to

vi /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default

Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

On debian you have to manually enable rewrite mod for apache, you can do it manually or via a2enmod

ln -s /etc/apache2/mods-available/rewrite.load /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/rewrite.load
or
sudo a2enmod rewrite

And restart apache:

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

5.) Database installation

Now point you web browser to http://server/phpipam/ and the install script will start that installs default schema for phpipam database. Use mysql root password that you created in step 3 and click install.

Translation support will be available on next phpipam release, code is being redone and final checks ongoing. I have decided to go with gettext, it seems to be the most suitable for phpipam.

Translating is straight-forward, by providing translations for strings, for example:

#: functions/functions-mail.php:176
msgid “your domain username”
msgstr “translated text”

There are many tools available to help with translation, like poedit and others.

If anyone is interested in providing translation, please contact me on email. I have already received some requests in the past, I will try to dig up old emails…

From version 0.9 on there is a option to automatically check statuses of configured hosts for selected subnets, and I received some related questions about it, so here is a short description and guide for it.

Firstly, pcntl support for php cli is advised so phpipam can do parallel icmp checks, this greatly reduces time required for checking status. You can check if your installation is ok with following command:

php -m | grep pcntl

1.) Configure the parameters for pinging

You should set required parameters for pinging, etc ping path etc under

functions/scan/config-scan.php

You can get your ping path by invoking “whereas ping” in terminal.
You can also set some optional parameters in script itself

functions/scripts/pingCheck.php

Also, set the time parameters for status under Administration > IPAM settings (Ping status intervals), phpipam will set host as down/up based on this values.

2.) Select which networks to check

Now you have to select which subnets should scan for statuses for configured hosts. Go to edit subnet and check “Check hosts status”. This will tell the cron script to check the status of hosts inside this subnet.

3.) Add cron script

I suggest checking it per 15 minutes:

# update host statuses exery 15 minutes
*/15 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php /usr/local/www/phpipam/functions/scripts/pingCheck.php

Change the paths according to your installation of course

That should be it. I would advise to run the script manually for the first time to see if any errors are present.

Having large amount of subnets (and other tables) on unoptimised MySQL database server can significantly increase page loads. To see which parameters need to be change I usually use mysqltuner perl script, which connects to database, analyses data and proposes which parameters need to be changed that are not optimally set based on current load.

Installation is simple:

1.) Fetch mysqltuner on FreeBSD:

cd ~
fetch http://mysqltuner.pl

or wget on linux:

wget http://mysqltuner.com

2.) Make it executable:

chmod +x mysqltuner.pl

3.) And run it to analyse database, you have to provide administrative credentials.

./mysqltuner.pl

Any other similar scripts out there you would recommend?

phpipam has support for creating custom fields to be used in address, subnets, vlans, devices and users tables. This is useful when you need to add some custom data to your tables. You can set your custom fields under Administration > Custom fields.

It supports following types of data and it representations:

• varchar: normal input field
• integer: input field that must be an integer
• boolean: true/false field, that is interpreted with dropdown
• text: textarea input field, that holds bigger data than varchar
• date: adds date field, that is represented with date dropdown
• datetime: adds datetime field, that is represented with date and time dropdown
• set: set field adds dropdown options, you control options in size/length field. For example, to have dropdown with three options you set ‘site1′,’site2′,’site3′ in size/length field.

Besides setting field type there are some other variables that can be set for each:

• size / length: depends on field type this controls maximum length of input field or text, maximum size of integer, options for set field etc.
• default: adds default value if field is left blank.
• required: controls weather field is required to be filled in, if it is not insert/exit query will fail.

You can also set which fields are to be hidden from default table by clicking of filter button. Selected custom fields will not be visible in table view, but will always be visible under details for each data type. For example hiding custom IP address field will be visible in editing IP address and IP address details, but will not be shown in list of all IP addresses in subnet. This is mainly used to control size of table view not to be too wide.

Also note that if for example some field is to be shown for addresses and all inputs for this field are empty in view of all addresses in subnet, the field will not be shown.

Below are some screenshots.

Many issues reported with scanning subnets and updating host statuses are related to SElinux being enabled. So far the solution was to completely disable SElinux, but this was more workaround than anything else. Robert was kind enough to share SElinux policy that should be used with phpipam if SElinux is enabled on your server.

Basically it permits the opening of raw IP sockets for non-root users, that are required for executing ping command.

1) Create the file http_ping.tt and add the following to it:

module http_ping 1.0;

require {
type httpd_t;
class capability net_raw;
class rawip_socket { getopt create setopt write read };
}

#============= httpd_t ==============
allow httpd_t self:capability net_raw;
allow httpd_t self:rawip_socket { getopt create setopt write read };

2) Run the following commands (as root user):

checkmodule -M -m -o http_ping.mod http_ping.tt
semodule_package -o http_ping.pp -m http_ping.mod
semodule -i http_ping.pp

To simplify API calls etc. I created a separate GitHub repository to have a collection of phpipam API clients for different languages etc. If you created a client and want to share it head over to https://github.com/phpipam/phpipam-api-clients and share yours !

To start I created a php class to work as API client, now available in repo in php-client folder.
https://github.com/phpipam/phpipam-api-clients/tree/master/php-client

It supports all API calls, also encrypted requests are supported by setting $api_key variable in config file. Supported output formats are json/xml/array/object.

Here is a short example of working with client.

1. Copy config.dist.php to config.php and enter details for you installation / API to provided variables. You can also specify each parameter when initialising client directly.
2. Make calls

Here is a short example how to get details for specific section:
<?php
include config file and api client class file
require("api-config.php");
require("class.phpipam-api.php");

# init object with settings from config file or specify your own
$API = new phpipam_api_client ($api_url, $api_app_id, $api_key, $api_username, $api_password, $result_format);
# debug - output curl headers it some problems occur
$API->set_debug (false);
# execute call
$API->execute ("GET", "sections", array(5), "", $token_file);
# ger result
$result = $API->get_result();

# print result
print_r($result);
?>

API client takes following parameters for initialization:

• $api_url : Url of your phpipam API server - http://10.10.10.3/phpipam/api/

• $api_app_id : Name / id of your application as created in phpipam API under administration - myfirstapi

• $api_key : API key if API security is set to crypt for you API appid. This will be used to encrypt requests, otherwise set to false

• $api_username, $api_password : Username / password of some phpipam account to use for authorization. Not needed for encrypted requests

• $result_format : can by one of following: json / xml / array / object

For call execution following parameters are needed:

• method : HTTP method to use (OPTIONS, GET, POST, DELETE, PATCH, PUT) - - REQUIRED

• controller : Which controller to use (sections, subnets, vlans, ...) - REQUIRED

• identifiers : array of identifiers to add to URL request. (/api/myfistapi/sections/identifier1/identifier2/...)

• parameters : key/value array of GET/POST parameters to add to URL request. (POST /api/myfistapi/sections/1/?name=test)

• Token file : if this is set to false than for each query first authorisation query will be made to obtain access token,

  meaning 1 additional request. If you specify filename here the token will be saved to this file, so no additional queries

   will be required as long as token is valid.

This is an output from terminal with debug mode :
