Our appliance supports a few thousand devices. We generate in our internal view of DNS (also Infoblox) the DNS names for our router interfaces so if someone does a lookup on something like: host 192.168.2.1. It will come back with vlan3-router.domain. It helps our NOC troubleshoot and gives local computer support people much needed information.
In order to generate those DNS records from NetMRI this is what I am having to do the following pseudocode through the WAPI:
---- code ----
for all infra_devices with DeviceAssurance > 72: # need SNMP name
for all interfaces in each infra_device: # need interface name
for all IP address on each interface: # need IP address
generate the appropriate Infoblox NIOS CSV import line.
diff output from last time it ran.
take changes and push to NIOS.
--- code ----
We have over 11000 layer 3 interfaces. The program takes a long time to run. I can try new hardware but is this approach to generate DNS from NetMRI information?
Solved! Go to Solution.

It should make a dramatic difference in the performance.
