IP Settings

Unlike most iTop's extensions, the definition of TeemIp configuration parameters is split between a dedicated class of objects, named Global IP Setting, and the general configuration file.

• Global IP Settings host the parameters that are specific to an organization,
• The general configuration file defines parameters that drive TeemIp's generic behaviour and enables the default value of Global IP Settings parameters to be overwritten.

Global IP Setting objects store all parameters that drive TeemIp behaviour.

From the Configuration menu, under the General Configuration sub-menu, the Global IP Settings shortcut displays the IP Setting used by the different organizations.

From the listing view, click on the to display the creation form.

From the detailed view of a Global IP Setting, click on the button. Basically, all parameters can be changed here but, of course, the organization.

A Global IP Setting for a given organization is now mandatory to create an IP object for that organization. First option is to create the Global IP Setting before creating an IP Object. Second option is to directly create the IP Object. Indeed, as soon as the organization is selected in the IP object creation form, TeemIp checks if a corresponding Global IP Setting exits for that organization and automatically creates one if required.

When the Global IP Setting is automatically created, parameters are set with the default values defined in TeemIp's data model. It is however possible to overload these default values through the general Configuration file, as described below.
