# Unmanaged IPs

The page lists all IP addresses discovered during network scans that do not belong to any configured container, subcontainer, block, or subnet in IPAM. These IPs were detected as active on the network but are not mapped to your IP address hierarchy.

Unmanaged IPs typically indicate:

* Devices operating outside defined subnets
* Incorrect or inconsistent IP allocation
* Newly connected devices that have not yet been added to the IPAM structure
* Potential rogue, shadow, or unmanaged assets on the network
* Misconfigured network segments or DHCP pools

## What You See on the Screen

The page displays the following columns:

**Unmanaged IPs |** Basic Details

<table><thead><tr><th width="226">Label</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Subnet</strong></td><td>The subnet from which the unmanaged IP was detected. This is based on the responding source IP.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Source IP</strong></td><td>The scanner IP or data collector IP that detected the unmanaged address.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>IP Address</strong></td><td>The unmanaged IP was discovered during an Availability or Inventory scan.</td></tr></tbody></table>

### **How IPs Become “Unmanaged”**

An IP appears in the Unmanaged IPs list when:

* A scan detects a reachable IP address
* The IP does not fall under any configured container → subcontainer → block → subnet
* The IP’s address range is not part of your existing IPAM hierarchy

Example scenarios:

* A device with an address outside configured subnet ranges
* An external or guest device connected temporarily
* Incorrectly assigned static IPs
* Devices on overlapping or shadow networks

### Exporting

The page includes an Export button to download all unmanaged IPs in CSV format.
