The setup workflow is common to all IPAM integrations: connect, import the networks, map them to your resource handler networks, and then enable orchestration. See [IP address management (IPAM)](/docs/cmp/configure/infrastructure/networks/ipam/) for those steps. This page covers what is specific to SolarWinds.

## Connection details

In **Admin** > **IP Management**, select **Add**, then choose **SolarWinds**.

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Name** | A name for this connection. |
| **IP address** | The address or hostname of the SolarWinds server. |
| **Port** | Defaults to **17778**, the SolarWinds Information Service port, rather than the 443 the other integrations use. |
| **Protocol** | HTTP or HTTPS. Defaults to HTTPS. |
| **Account username** | An account authorized to run commands on the SolarWinds server. |
| **Password** | The password for that account. It is stored securely. If the password vault feature is enabled, this field offers **Locally Stored** or **Vault Managed**. Select **Vault Managed** to read the secret from a configured vault provider. See [Use password vaults](/docs/cmp/configure/access-and-security/security/use-password-vaults/). |
