Overview
This node interacts with the Phpipam API to perform various operations related to IP address management. Specifically, for the 'Addresses' resource and 'Ping Address' operation, it sends a GET request to ping a specified IP address by its ID. This is useful for network administrators who want to verify the availability or status of an IP address within their Phpipam-managed network. For example, it can be used to check if a device at a given IP address is reachable.
