NetBox Labs Documentation

Documentation for NetBox, the #1 Network & Infrastructure System of Record, and the NetBox Labs Infrastructure Intelligence Platform built around it.

The NetBox Labs platform

Every capability builds on NetBox - and the platform delivers it your way:

The Infrastructure Graph

Model

A canonical record of what your infrastructure is supposed to look like: devices, connections, services, IPs, and their relationships.

IPAM, DCIM, circuits, virtualization: the system of record for your infrastructure.

Define new object types to model what matters to you - no plugin code required.

Procurement to retirement: purchasing, shipments, spares, and bills of materials.

Curated catalog of tens of thousands of device types with lifecycle and operational metadata.

Operational Intelligence

See

Continuous reconciliation of live state against the intended model, surfacing drift, impact, and compliance gaps.

Discover devices and IP space automatically and keep documentation current.

Streaming ingestion: normalize data into NetBox from any source.

Detect and resolve operational drift between intent and reality.

Discover and sync from Cisco, VMware, Infoblox, Proxmox, and more.

Bidirectional CMDB synchronization between NetBox and ServiceNow.

Sync NetBox inventory into Jira Service Management Assets.

Grounded Action

Act

Decisions and changes anchored in the Infrastructure Graph and executed under Change Governance, whether the actor is a human, an automation tool, or an AI agent.

Ask questions in plain language and review AI-assisted changes before they execute.

Connect external AI agents to NetBox data, with writes routed through governance.

High-throughput bulk REST API for fast, large-scale writes into NetBox.

Change Governance

Govern

Safety primitives every write passes through: branching, approvals, audit, and guardrails shared by humans and AI agents.

Stage change sets in isolated branches and review them as diffs before merge.

Explicit change records with configurable, role-aware approval workflows.

Pre-change checks and continuous compliance coverage with 90+ built-in checks.
