IPAM Rules
IPAM Rules are accessed from the Admin section, under the IPAM Admin tab by clicking on "Edit IPAM Rules".
...
In the IPAM Admin "Edit IPAM Rules" section, Admin users may view all existing IPAM Rules, the blocks affected by each rule, create new rules, and delete existing rules.
The IPAM Rules page includes information for:
- Add New Rule: Opens the "Manage Ruleset" interface where a new rule may be created. This module is also accessible from the "IP Rules" option on the IPAM Manage Action Menu.
- Search: Filter the list of rules by searching for a rule name.
- Rule Name: The user-created name of the rule. Clicking on the rule name will bring up the Manage Ruleset screen, showing an editable list of rule positions.
- Creation Date: Date the rule was created.
- Positions: How many positions are reserved by the rule.
- View Applied Networks: Shows a list of blocks that have the rule applied.
- Delete Rule: Deletes the selected rule.
Add an IPAM Rule:
Adding an IPAM Rule from the Admin area functions the same way as if accessed from IPAM Manage.
Click on "Add new Rule", and the Manage Ruleset screen will appear, prompting you to enter a Ruleset name, and select positions to reserve.

IP Rule PositionsReserved addresses are set by their position in the block. Positions start at '1', for the first address in a block, and step up by one for each subsequent IP address. The last position in a block is '0', representing the last address, and steps down a negative integer for each position from last - so the last three addresses in a block would be represented by (0, -1, -2). When reserving multiple positions, the typed order of the positions does not matter. Position examples: (1) - Reserves the first IP (0) - Reserves the last IP (1,2,3) - Reserves the first three IPs (0, -1, -2) - Reserves the last three IPs. (1,2,3,0,-1,-2) - Reserves the first three and last three IPs |
