Subnet Pools

The Subnet Pools allow you to allocate IPv4 subnets for the need of services.

Create Subnet Pool

To add a Subnet Pool in Prelude OneBoard, navigate to Application Settings > Pools, then select the Subnet Pools tab.

Fill the form with the following information:

• Pool Name A name to identify the usage of this pool
• Pool Type Select the type of pool (only option for now is local, later pool delegation to external tool will be added)
• Network The parent prefix to allocate subnet from
• Allocated subnet netmask The size of the allocated subnet
• Tag Tag the pool to identify what type of data it is (see the Pool Tag section)

Your Subnet Pool is ready to use.

Manual Allocation

There is two ways to allocate subnets, automatically from Prelude services or manually.

To manually allocate a subnet, navigate to the pool detail view.

Then click on the "+ Manual allocation" and fill the form with the following information:

• Request Name A name to identify the usage of the subnet
• Request a Subnet Optional field, to request a specific subnet

You can then release the requested subnet by clicking on the "Release" button.

Only manually allocated subnets can be released from the pool view.

Pool Tag

The Pool Tag is used to identify the usage of the subnets allocated by the pool (cpe-interco, cpe-management, etc.).
