Service Graph Connector for Bluecat imports IP and Network data from Bluecat Networks quickly, seamlessly, and securely. Bluecat is a highly scalable and automation friendly DDI solution which provides a single source of truth for network teams to reduce errors and speed operations. Service Graph Connector for Bluecat allows you to pull such IP data to enrich ServiceNow's CMDB, enabling use cases such as Incident Management, Change Management and Service Mapping, with smarter network planning, faster troubleshooting, and enhanced support.
Service Graph Connector for Bluecat pulls data coherent with the other Connectors and the rest of the ServiceNow ITOM suite, ensuring your CMDB is clean, consistent, and fully aligned with all the network information across your environment. Its plug and play configuration is compatible with SGC Central, making it easy and straightforward to set up. The Connector allows the use of tags from Bluecat and handles the life cycle of networks and IPs, giving you complete discretion on your policies.
Service Graph Connector for Bluecat empowers use cases of IP Asset Management and therefore IT Operations Management.
The connector pulls the following classes into ServiceNow CMDB:
- IP Pool
- IP Network Subnet
- Managed Network
- Allocated IP Address
It supports:
Notification Support
Creates a task in the IP Address Management Task table and assigns it to the preferred user group when a network is inserted or deleted from the CMDB CI IP Network Subnet table, based on the user-defined action preference (insertion/deletion).
Subnetwork Filtering
Supports selective subnetwork filtering, allowing IP address data to be imported only from chosen networks. These subnetworks can be configured through the custom table SG-BlueCat Detailed Network Subnet.
Lifecycle Management
Implements lifecycle management using soft deletion to retire CI records that are no longer present in the source platform or are excluded by the applied filters.
