Add Network Resource Pools
A network resource pool defines values for the network resources, such as IPv4 loopback addresses, interface IP addresses, segment identifiers (SIDs), BGP cluster IDs, and so on, that are assigned to devices in your network.
Routing Director assigns values to the network resources in a device profile and an interface profile when automatic configuration is enabled for the network resources.
You can create a resource pool by:
-
Uploading a JSON file. See Upload Network Resource Pools for Device Onboarding in JSON Format.
-
Manually entering the values. See Add a Resource Instance.
-
Using REST APIs.
