Typology

Like all topology elements, these IP ones are managed through the Typology configuration menu of the Data Administration module.

IP Block Types will allow administrators to define the main usage that an IP Block can have: user space, data centre space, interconnections… Name of type being defined through a free text attribute, administrators can really create what suits their needs best.
