Micetro: mission control for your DNS, DHCP, and IPAM services
Gain visibility and control over your network with a simple and powerful management overlay that orchestrates the DNS, DHCP, and IPAM services you already use.
Take control of your network
Your whole core services infrastructure at a glance. See new and existing DNS, DHCP, and IPAM information—for every data center, cloud and branch network—in BlueCat Micetro’s intuitive UI, including account information, search and filtering, and categorization.
Track, allocate, and control every address in your IP space. Automatically find the next available IP when bringing new services with DNS information to market.
Micetro has an API-first ethos. Create self-service portals, make automation easy for your DevOps teams and integrate with third-party systems for observability, network management and approval workflows.
Stay ahead of the curve with at-a-glance utilization information, smart health-check alerts and easy configuration of scheduled or triggered events.
Simple and clear visualizations (of DHCP allocations, subnets, address spaces and more) make it easy to plan and design your networks for optimal performance and reliability.

Managing Microsoft DNS with BlueCat Micetro
Whether you’re using on-premises Microsoft snap-ins across several physical servers or Azure DNS in the cloud, BlueCat Micetro provides you with a centralized view of your entire DNS environment. You’ll never be stuck parsing through system logs again—retrieve all the information you need through the Micetro UI or API.
Integration with Active Directory and Azure AD—keep your users and groups and get granular role-based access control to manage your DNS down to the zone
Agent-free operations—avoid having to install and maintain third-party agents as only one agent is required to handle remote DNS/DHCP server communications
Centralized view of all AD forests, sites, and subnets—easily manage mergers and acquisitions with DNS visibility, observability, and control of all in one place
Support for mixed environments—view and manage your Microsoft DNS services alongside other cloud and on-premises solutions like AWS, Akamai, Cisco, etc.
Proactive triggers and alerting—automatically run external scripts when object properties are modified, zones are changed, or the number of free IP addresses falls below your threshold
[With Micetro] we can see the whole IP space, knowing which IP is mapped to which name. It’s much easier to see what’s free and where we want to put things, rather than probing the IPs one by one through DNS.The Tolly Test Report on Micetro
