IP Address Management (IPAM) is the name of an IT discipline that involves centralized management, monitoring, and auditing of IP address spaces and corresponding infrastructure servers on a network
IPAM is performed on a Microsoft network by an installable Windows Server 2012 feature that you run on a domain member server to “centrally watch and manage” the other servers on your network that are actually doing the work. IPAM manages the functionality of the following Windows servers:
- DHCP Service
- DNS Server
- Network Policy Server (NPS)
- Active Directory Domain Controller (DC)

- www.globomantics. com IN A 192.168.0.12
- www.globomantics. com IN A 192.168.0.13
The value of timestamp for all the three records is zero. What does this represent?
