Grid Manager uses IP addresses as the entry point to the data set containing Infoblox host, DNS, DHCP, and other information related to that address. You can view the data, modify it, assign extensible attributes to the objects associated with the address, and convert DHCP lease types, such as changing a currently active dynamic lease to a fixed address or host record.  
You can view and manage IPv4 address data in the IP Map panel, and view and manage IPv4 and IPv6 data in the IP List panel. You can do the following for IPv4 and IPv6 data from the IP List panel:

- Convert objects to other object types.
- Reclaim IP addresses.
- Ping IP addresses.
- Clear DHCP leases.

You can also print and export in CSV format the information displayed in any panel that supports these functions.
