When you are applying properties to IP blocks, you have the option to edit tags. IPAM Tags are used in a number of areas in ProVision and can be added or edited from this screen.
To add a new IPAM tag, click on "Add Tag" at the top of the Edit IPAM Tags page.
Then, type in the desired name value for the new tag , and hit in the box at the top of the Edit IPAM Tags page and click "Add Tag".
To edit a tag, simply type your changes in to the text box with the tag name. Tags with unsaved changes will be highlighted until saved.
To reorder the tag list, click and hold on the "list" icon (three lines) to the left of the tag name, then drag to the desired location in the list and release. . You can also click the "Sort Alphabetically" button at the top.
To delete a tag, click on the red "deleteDelete" symbol button to the right of the tag name.

Access IPAM regions from IPAM Admin → Edit IPAM Regions.
The Regions display includes fields for Region Code, Name, and Address.
- 'Region Code' is the shorthand name that will show in the IPAM Gadget and IPAM Manage screens.
- 'Name' is the long form name value that will be written to the database, used for API calls, and is also used for some filter selectors.
- The 'Address' field is used by IPAM map view (via Google Geocode API) to geolocate aggregates with that assigned region. Address may be in the form of a City / State / Country, a full street address, a company name, or other search term that Google API can return a location for. The more accurate your address information, the more accurate map view will be with your aggregate locations. An "address" value that appears invalid to Google Geocode API will display a yellow warning symbol. To use regions, you will need to apply a Google Geocode API Key.
Applying a Google Geocoding API Key:

Numbering Authority allows Admin users to configure domain sets of values, for use with associated ProVision functions or external number tracking.
With Numbering Authority, you can create new numbering domains, track which values have been handed out, free values no longer in use, generate the next sequence value, and associate keys-value pairs to a number value. Numbering Domains may be used with ProVision's APIv2 to generate numbers for use within ProVision instances or custom applications.
Available Domain Types
Four Six numbering domain types are available in Numbering Authority: Sequential, Multi-Range, Meta Multi-range, UIUDv4, and IPv6 Sparse Allocation, and Meta IPv6.
Sequential:
Provides a sequential number domain starting with '0' and progressing in numerical order. Potential Applications: Ticketing Queues, Customer Numbers
...
User-defined numbers and number ranges (e.g.: 2-3,4-6, 25, 27-28) to include or exclude as available. Potential Applications: VLANs
Meta Multi-Range:
The Meta Multi-range numbering type is similar to Multi-range, but includes additional options to specify the ordering sequence.
Users define individual numbers and number ranges (e.g.: 2-3,4-6, 25, 27-28) to include or exclude as available, and then may also specify a Selection name and algorithm to specify the order.
UIUD v4:
Generates a Universally Unique Identifier according to v4 (Random) standard. Potential Applications: Unique Identifiers
...
Determines the next IPv6 block to assign to evenly distribute assignments throughout the provided range. Used with the IPAM IPv6 Aggregate Sparse Allocate function. See: Working with IP Aggregates . Applications: ProVision IPv6 Sparse Allocation
Meta IPv6:
The Meta IPv6 numbering type generates the next IPv6 block of the specified mask from a larger aggregate. Users may specify a Selection name and algorithm to specify the order (forwards/backwards).
Optionally, new sub numbering domains may be created automatically at each number generation in order to generate assignment blocks for hierarchical IPv6 relationships.

Create a Numbering DomainGo to Admin → IPAM Admin, and select the "Numbering Authority" page. Create a new numbering domain by expanding the "Create New Numbering Domain" section, then typing in a name for the new domain and selecting a domain type. Enter information for the specific domain type, if necessary, and select whether to allow number reuse. When done, click "Create". All Numbering Domains must have, at minimum "Name" provided and a "Type" selected. Additional options may exist based on the selected Numbering Domain type:
Number Domain ActionsOnce a numbering domain is created, you may perform the following actions: Get Next Value:Gets the next value in the domain, adds it to the list of used domain values (assigns to the domain), and displays that value to the user. Get Next Value with Selection Types:If the numbering domain has associated Selections, such as the Meta Multi-range Example below, then the Selection type (pick order) will need to be set prior to generating the next number.
Get Next Value with Selection Types:If "Create numbering domain" was set to create a new domain from an existing Meta IPv6 setup, then each time a number is generated a new Meta-IPv6 sub-domain item will be created using the settings from the referenced domain.
View Assigned Values:View values that are assigned to the domain, view used/free status, free assigned blocks, and save key-value metadata to values. Sort by Value and Free/Used values by clicking the column names To add metadata to a value, enter your information into the "Key" and "Value" fields under Metadata, then click "Save". Free a value for reuse, if allowed, by clicking "Free" under the value Actions column. Delete:Deletes the numbering domain. |
