Block availability and creation of IPs in IP Ranges #11678
Labels
status: duplicate
This issue has already been raised
type: feature
Introduction of new functionality to the application
NetBox version
v3.4.2
Feature type
Change to existing functionality
Proposed functionality
We would suggest "IP Ranges" gets the following 2 new booleans:
"Exclude from Available IPs"
This still allows creation of IPs of this IP Range but prohibits them from being used in available ip logic (API&UI)
"Block creation of IPs in this Range"
As the name suggests, any IP creation in this range should be blocked
Use case
General IP Ranges for DHCP
or
Exclude ranges for automatic short lived DHCP deployments to avoid collisions which later get proper IPs assigned
and
To avoid blocking e.g. 2000 (or IPv6-scale amounts of) IPs in the database manually
Something similar came up in #7516 though it was about utilization and making them unavailable for other uses.
#9763 captures a possible UI solution
