IP Pools¶
Infrastructure > Network > IP Pools
Overview¶
The IP Pools tab in the Networks section allows you to create HPE VM-type IP Pools (which is an IP address range HPE VM Essentials can use to assign available static IP addresses to Instances) and NSX IP Pools. The IP Pool section also displays pools synced from IPAM integrations like Infoblox, Bluecat and others.
