Question / FR: How should IP addresses from an IP Range be assigned to interfaces? #143

Description

@SerhiiZahuba

I have a question about the intended workflow for assigning IP addresses that belong to an IP Range to a device or VM interface.

For example, an ISP has allocated the following public IP addresses to us:

Network: 192.173.199.0/24

Allocated IP range:
192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

I can represent this in Danbyte as:

Prefix:
192.173.199.0/24

IP Range:
192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

The IP Range represents only the public addresses allocated to us by the ISP, while the entire /24 network obviously does not belong to us.

Now I want to assign one of these addresses, for example:

192.173.199.64/24

to a WAN interface of a device.

Current behavior

When adding an IP address to an interface, Danbyte requires selecting a Subnet.

I can select:

192.173.199.0/24

and manually enter:

192.173.199.64

However, the existing IP Range:

192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

does not appear to participate in the IP assignment workflow.

Danbyte does not seem to offer the available addresses from this range when assigning an IP to an interface.

Question

What is the intended way to model and assign such addresses in Danbyte?

Should I:

Create the full 192.173.199.0/24 as a Prefix/Subnet;
Create 192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67 as an IP Range;
Manually create individual IP addresses such as 192.173.199.64/24 and assign them to interfaces?

Or is there another intended workflow for allocating addresses from an IP Range?

Possible feature request

If this functionality does not currently exist, it would be useful if IP Ranges could be used as allocation pools when assigning addresses to interfaces.

For example:

Prefix: 192.173.199.0/24

IP Range:
192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

Available:
192.173.199.61
192.173.199.62
192.173.199.63
192.173.199.64
192.173.199.65
192.173.199.66
192.173.199.67

When adding an IP to an interface, after selecting the subnet, Danbyte could optionally allow selecting an IP Range belonging to that subnet and then show only the available addresses within that range.

For example:

Subnet:
192.173.199.0/24

IP Range:
192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

Available address:
192.173.199.64

After assignment, 192.173.199.64/24 would become an IP Address assigned to the interface and would no longer be considered available within the range.

This would be especially useful for ISP-assigned public IP pools, where only a small portion of a larger subnet is allocated to the organization.

          192.173.199.64

          However, the existing IP Range:

          192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

          does not appear to participate in the IP assignment workflow.

          Danbyte does not seem to offer the available addresses from this range when assigning an IP to an interface.

          Question

          What is the intended way to model and assign such addresses in Danbyte?

          Should I:

          Create the full 192.173.199.0/24 as a Prefix/Subnet;
          Create 192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67 as an IP Range;
          Manually create individual IP addresses such as 192.173.199.64/24 and assign them to interfaces?

          Or is there another intended workflow for allocating addresses from an IP Range?

          Possible feature request

          If this functionality does not currently exist, it would be useful if IP Ranges could be used as allocation pools when assigning addresses to interfaces.

          For example:

          Prefix: 192.173.199.0/24

          IP Range:
          192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

          Available:
          192.173.199.61
          192.173.199.62
          192.173.199.63
          192.173.199.64
          192.173.199.65
          192.173.199.66
          192.173.199.67

          When adding an IP to an interface, after selecting the subnet, Danbyte could optionally allow selecting an IP Range belonging to that subnet and then show only the available addresses within that range.

          For example:

          Subnet:
          192.173.199.0/24

          IP Range:
          192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

          Available address:
          192.173.199.64

          After assignment, 192.173.199.64/24 would become an IP Address assigned to the interface and would no longer be considered available within the range.

          This would be especially useful for ISP-assigned public IP pools, where only a small portion of a larger subnet is allocated to the organization.

            Question / FR: How should IP addresses from an IP Range be assigned to interfaces? #143

            Description

            @SerhiiZahuba

            I have a question about the intended workflow for assigning IP addresses that belong to an IP Range to a device or VM interface.

            For example, an ISP has allocated the following public IP addresses to us:

            Network: 192.173.199.0/24

            Allocated IP range:
            192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

            I can represent this in Danbyte as:

            Prefix:
            192.173.199.0/24

            IP Range:
            192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

            The IP Range represents only the public addresses allocated to us by the ISP, while the entire /24 network obviously does not belong to us.

            Now I want to assign one of these addresses, for example:

            192.173.199.64/24

            to a WAN interface of a device.

            Current behavior

            When adding an IP address to an interface, Danbyte requires selecting a Subnet.

            I can select:

            192.173.199.0/24

            and manually enter:

            192.173.199.64

            However, the existing IP Range:

            192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

            does not appear to participate in the IP assignment workflow.

            Danbyte does not seem to offer the available addresses from this range when assigning an IP to an interface.

            Question

            Create 192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67 as an IP Range;
            Manually create individual IP addresses such as 192.173.199.64/24 and assign them to interfaces?

            Or is there another intended workflow for allocating addresses from an IP Range?

            For example:

            Prefix: 192.173.199.0/24

            IP Range:
            192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

            Available:
            192.173.199.61
            192.173.199.62
            192.173.199.63
            192.173.199.64
            192.173.199.65
            192.173.199.66
            192.173.199.67

            When adding an IP to an interface, after selecting the subnet, Danbyte could optionally allow selecting an IP Range belonging to that subnet and then show only the available addresses within that range.

            For example:

            Subnet:
            192.173.199.0/24

            IP Range:
            192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

            Available address:
            192.173.199.64

            After assignment, 192.173.199.64/24 would become an IP Address assigned to the interface and would no longer be considered available within the range.

            This would be especially useful for ISP-assigned public IP pools, where only a small portion of a larger subnet is allocated to the organization.

                When adding an IP to an interface, after selecting the subnet, Danbyte could optionally allow selecting an IP Range belonging to that subnet and then show only the available addresses within that range.

                For example:

                Subnet:
                192.173.199.0/24

                IP Range:
                192.173.199.61 - 192.173.199.67

                Available address:
                192.173.199.64

                After assignment, 192.173.199.64/24 would become an IP Address assigned to the interface and would no longer be considered available within the range.

                This would be especially useful for ISP-assigned public IP pools, where only a small portion of a larger subnet is allocated to the organization.
