Service Graph Connector for Infoblox properties
Summarize
Summary of Service Graph Connector for Infoblox properties
The Service Graph Connector for Infoblox properties define how the connector behaves when integrating Infoblox data with your ServiceNow CMDB. These properties include connection settings that specify what data to import, as well as system-level configurations that control processing limits and IP address import behavior. Proper configuration of these properties ensures efficient and targeted data synchronization from Infoblox into ServiceNow.

Connection Properties
Connection properties govern how the connector connects and retrieves data from Infoblox:
- apiversion: Specifies the Infoblox API version to use.
- networkview: Defines a comma-separated list of Infoblox Network Views to import data from. If left empty, data is imported from all network views.
These settings are accessible by navigating to All > Service Graph Connectors > Infoblox > Connections and selecting the connection name.
System Properties
System properties control processing and IP address import behavior at a global level:
- sninfobloxinteg.parallelloadingpartitionsize: Sets the maximum number of networks processed per partition, with an upper limit of 150. This helps manage load during data synchronization.
- sninfobloxinteg.defaultgetipaddress: A boolean setting that determines whether newly imported networks automatically retrieve IP address details. When true, IP addresses are imported by default; when false, IP addresses are excluded unless specified.
- sninfobloxinteg.includednetworkregex: A pipe-delimited string listing IP addresses to include in the import when defaultgetipaddress is false.
- sninfobloxinteg.excludednetworkregex: A pipe-delimited string listing IP addresses to exclude from the import when defaultgetipaddress is true.
These system properties can be viewed and edited in the System Properties [sysproperties] table by entering sysproperties.list in the navigation filter.
Practical Application
By configuring these properties, ServiceNow customers can tailor the Infoblox data import to their environment’s needs—selecting specific network views, controlling processing batch sizes for performance, and precisely managing which IP addresses are included or excluded. This flexibility helps maintain an accurate, efficient, and relevant CMDB.

Connection properties
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
|
api_version |
Version of the Infoblox API. |
|
network_view |
Enter the names (as a comma-separated list) of the Infoblox Network Views from which data is to be imported. Note:
If a value isn't specified for this property, data is imported from all Infoblox network views.

System properties
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
|
sn_infoblox_integ.parallel_loading_partition_size |
Set the maximum number of networks that each partition processes. The maximum value that can be set for this property is
|
|
sn_infoblox_integ.default_get_ip_address |
Set a global default value for the Get IP Address option. When the value is set to true, all newly imported networks automatically retrieve IP address details. You can specify which IP addresses are to be excluded from the import by using the sn_infoblox_integ.excluded_network_regex system property. When the value is set to false, networks don't retrieve IP addresses by default. You can specify which IP addresses are to be imported by using the sn_infoblox_integ.included_network_regex system property.

|
sn_infoblox_integ.included_network_regex |
Enter the list of IP addresses to be imported. Specify the list in pipe-delimited string format. For information about configuring this property to prevent system property cache invalidation, see the Configure Service Graph Connector for Infoblox [KB2523896] article in the Now Support Knowledge Base.
