Abstract
An automated method of and apparatus for Internet address management is provided. The method and apparatus receive requests for a host name/IP address assignment and automatically performs error checking on the request. The method and apparatus determine if there are available addresses in the address space for the requested subnet and if the new host name meets the requisite criteria for a valid host name. Once error checked, the requested amount of IP addresses are created and inspected for uniqueness. Individual host names are created and inspected for uniqueness prior to being assigned to respective IP addresses. Once assigned, the new host names/IP addresses are entered into the DNS database. Accordingly, the automated method and apparatus is less time consuming while being free from errors arising in prior Internet address management methods.
