    Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

    To understand how the IP pools, IP subnetworks, and allocated IP addresses are related to each other, see IP address inventory management data model.

    Procedimento

    1. Navigate to Workspaces > Network Inventory Workspace.
    2. Select the list icon (List icon.), and then go to Inventory > Allocated IP Addresses.
    3. Select New.
    4. On the Details tab, in the IP address section, fill in the fields.
      Tabela 1. Allocated IP Address form
      Field Description
      Name User-friendly name for this IP address.
      IP Address IPv4 or IPv6 IP address.
      Is Broadcast Value that you set to true if this IP address is a broadcast type IP address.
      Is DHCP Value that you set to true to override the Grid Level DHCP option with this option at the network level.
      Is DNS Value that you set to true if a Domain Name System (DNS) name is provided for this IP address.
    5. Create the Telecommunications Network Inventory attributes for this IP pool form by selecting the Set Inventory Attributes button.
      When you select the Set Inventory Attributes button, it creates the TNI CI Attributes record in the CI table and the Telecommunications Network Inventory CI Attributes tables and makes a relationship with the CI record.
      Nota:
      • If you select Save without selecting the Set Inventory Attributes button, it creates a CI record but not a Telecommunications Network Inventory CI record. In the network inventory workspace, the Set Inventory Attributes is visible only for the Telecommunications Network Inventory roles.
      • In the TNI CI attributes form, by default, the name is fetched from the Name field and the Inventory Category is set as IP Address.
    6. Add packs to this service by selecting Add Packs.
      To learn more about the packs, see Attribute packs.

    8. Select Save.
    9. View the hierarchy or flow chart of the created IP pool by selecting the Dependency View button.
    10. View the associated network inventories by selecting the brick icon (brick icon.).

      The Infrastructure Relationships section shows all the associated network inventories that are grouped by the individual network instances.
