Abstract

A system and method for performing IP to name resolution in organizational environments. IP addresses are determined for devices utilizing the corporate network. An IP address is resolved to a first device name and then the same IP address is subsequently resolved to a second device name. A profile is generated such as a timeline for the IP address including both the first and second device names. The timeline may be queried to determine whether the first device name or the second device name was associated with the IP address during a period of time.
