NetBox is a solution for modeling and documenting network infrastructure. It was developed to empower network engineers and is used by organizations worldwide.
It succeeds legacy IPAM and DCIM applications, offering a comprehensive and accessible data model for all networked things.
It provides a robust user interface and programmable APIs for everything from cable maps to device configurations, serving as the central source of truth for the modern network.
NetBox defines and validates the intended state of all network components and resources, making this data available programmatically for automation, monitoring, and assurance tools.
