It’s some blood, sweat, and tears. I helped on a migration from IPPlan to Infoblox for a Fortune 5 company years ago, 
and it was a LOT of data, and it was painful. Lots of CSV exports and scripts to do conversions to get data in a state 
where it could be imported to Infoblox properly.

Ok, it wasn’t *that* horrible but it was a bit of a heavy lift. There’s no magic “import” button.

I did a migration to Infoblox from ipplan, just by trawling the database, and figuring out some basic associations, 
but it heavily depends on how the data was entered, and there's several gotchas anyway.  I was hoping there was 
something more direct.

Finding a decent, maintained IPAM is one thing, but migrating is another - do any of these have an easy path from 
IPPlan?

&gt; &gt; Title says it all... Currently using IPPlan, but it is kinda antiquated.. 

&gt; 

&gt; This is always a good thing to review every 2-3 years or so. 

&gt; My current favorites in the open source world are: 

&gt; Netbox - https://github.com/digitalocean/netbox 

&gt; NIPAP - http://spritelink.github.io/NIPAP/ 

&gt; ed - http://man.openbsd.org/ed ;-) 

&gt; 

&gt; Give a few of the IPAMs out there a chance and just see which one 

&gt; suits your operational procedures best! (Though, using a spreadsheet 

&gt; file on a shared network drive is still not recommended.) 

&gt; 

&gt; Kind regards, 

&gt; Job
