phpIPAM vs teemIP

phpIPAM is a self-hosted web application for managing IPv4 and IPv6 address space. It organizes addresses into sections and subnets and displays available subnet space. Network tools include VLAN and VRF management, NAT support, rack management, an address calculator, automatic subnet scanning, and IP status checks. Administrators can set group permissions for sections and subnets; listed authentication options include AD, LDAP, and Radius. The application also lists PowerDNS integration and a REST API for use by other software. URL rewriting is required for the API, and its documentation recommends SSL to protect Basic authentication credentials. Installation requires Apache with PHP or Nginx with PHP-FPM, plus a MySQL server. The software is free at free. Stable files are available through GitHub and SourceForge, and development releases through GitHub. A demo installation is available, while community support is directed to GitHub. The project also offers help with custom development, integration, bug fixes, and installation or upgrades.

teemIP is an open-source IP address management solution for mapping, planning, and auditing an organization’s address plan. It manages IPv4 and IPv6 with DNS, DHCP, and NAT, and connects addresses to configuration items such as devices, services, sites, DNS records, reservations, and change requests. Teams can inspect subnet details in a hierarchical IP tree and handle address requests through tickets with assignment, tracking, and history. Role-based access control and logging support traceability for changes. A documented REST API and connectors integrate it with tools including iTop, GLPI, Jira, Centreon, Zabbix, Nagios, Lansweeper, AD/LDAP, VMware, Proxmox, Grafana, and Power BI. teemIP can be hosted on-premises or on sovereign cloud providers. The maker positions it as an inventory and network-mapping aid for NIS2 compliance. Community is free; Standard costs €500 a year, billed annually, with an annual commitment. Advanced active DNS/DHCP, high availability, and DNS security needs require scope validation.
