Adding Constraints to IPAM Columns

The Constraints system allows for custom field validation and field restrictions to be created for IPAM fields. The applied constraint may be anything from a numerical comparison operation,  a check against a pre-determined text string, ensuring selections from a pre-set list, or forcing entries into a specific format, such as IPv4/IPv6, phone number, or RegEx. For more detail on available types of constraints and creating them see the Constraints section.

A column that may have a constraint applied will have a checkmark icon in the "Options" column. Click the icon and select a constraint from the dropdown.
