4 Click OK.
The IP range name appears in the defined ranges list. The IP addresses in the range appear in the
defined IP addresses list.
The uploaded IP addresses appear on the IP Addresses page when you click Apply or after you
save and then edit the network profile.
5 Click OK to complete the network profile.
What to do next
You can assign a network profile to a network path in a reservation or a blueprint architect can specify the
network profile in a blueprint.
Creating a Routed Network Profile For an On-Demand Network
You can create an on-demand routed network profile that uses either the supplied vRealize Automation
IPAM endpoint or a properly configured and registered third-party IPAM endpoint.
A routed network profile represent routeable IP space that is divided across multiple networks. Each new
routed network allocates the next available subnet from the routable IP space. A routed network can
access all other routed networks that use the same network profile. Each routed subnet can access all
other subnets created by the same network profile.
For a third-party IPAM provider, the routable IP space is created and managed by the third-party IPAM
provider. The network administrator uses a third-party IPAM provider to define a routable IP space and
create an IP block for it. You can select one or more IP blocks retrieved from the third-party IPAM provider
when you create or edit a routed network profile.
When a new instance of a routed network profile is allocated from the third-party IPAM provider,
vRealize Automation calls the provider to reserve the next available subnet and creates a range, using IP
blocks that are determined by the routed network profile and the subnet size. The resulting range is used
to allocate IP addresses for machines that are assigned to the routed network in the same deployment.
Create a Routed Network Profile By Using the Supplied IPAM Endpoint
When using a routed network profile with the supplied IPAM endpoint, you can define a routable IP space
and available subnets for an on-demand routed network.
Using the supplied vRealize Automation IPAM endpoint, you can assign ranges of static IP addresses and
a base IP address to the routed network profile.
You can use IP ranges obtained from the supplied VMware IPAM endpoint or from a third-party IPAM
service provider endpoint that you have registered and configured in vRealize Orchestrator, such as
Infoblox IPAM. An IP range is created from an IP block during allocation.
Procedure
1 Specify Routed Network Profile Information with the vRealize Automation IPAM Endpoint
The network profile information identifies the routed network properties, its underlying external
network profile, and other values used in provisioning the network when using the supplied IPAM
endpoint.
