DISCOVERING OWNERSHIP ASSIGNMENT OF COMPUTER DEVICES IN A TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORK

原文（中文）

A method for discovering ownership assignment of computer devices includes obtaining a set of unassigned internet protocol (IP) addresses. The multiple computer devices are assigned to multiple teams of an organization such that each team is assigned to a segment of the sequence of IP addresses. The method includes converting each IP address into a numerical value. The method includes obtaining a set of assigned IP addresses from an assigned IP address database and obtaining a subnet allocation for each IP address in the set of assigned IP addresses. For a particular unassigned IP address, the method includes a reference IP address from the set of assigned IP addresses and determining whether the particular IP address and the reference IP address have a same subnet allocation. The method includes determining the ownership assignment based on the subnet allocation.
