Example

hello, can you provide example of full command for migrating phpipam to netbox ?

Hi jozefrebjak,

Sorry for not providing one in the README. I never thought anyone would bother looking at using this tool :)

I haven't used or worked on this in many years but give the following a try and see how you go. Let me know if you have any issues.

Unfortunately the last time I used it, this tool was still kinda buggy so you may have to manually modify the new entries on the NetBox side.

I also recommend setting --log-level to DEBUG and keeping an eye on its output to see if it looks correct.

# API key authentication
$ ipam-migrator "https://phpipam.example.com/api/<app_name>,phpipam,key,<api_key>" "https://netbox.example.com/api,netbox,key,<api_key>"

# Token authentication
$ ipam-migrator "https://phpipam.example.com/api/<app_name>,phpipam,token,<token>" "https://netbox.example.com/api,netbox,token,<token>"

# User/password authentication
$ ipam-migrator "https://phpipam.example.com/api/<app_name>,phpipam,login,<username>,<password>" "https://netbox.example.com/api,netbox,login,<username>,<password>"

# User/password for phpIPAM, API key for NetBox
# (you can mix and match authentication methods depending on your needs)
$ ipam-migrator "https://phpipam.example.com/api/<app_name>,phpipam,login,<username>,<password>" "https://netbox.example.com/api,netbox,key,<api_key>"

Thanks for this. I am trying to do exactly the same thing. So far it moves as far as finding all the IP addresses, then hangs for a bit after finding the VLANs. Then it crashes:

Can you change this line to False and try again?

Looks like I never got around to adding support for exporting VRFs, likely because we never used it at my company.

I had the same problem and changing the line to False helps.
After that I had another problem with the logger object. I had to comment out some info/debug logger lines to get it working.
