Reserve IP Range by Drawing
IP ranges can be reserved for FortiGate interface assignment by drawing rectangles on Heatmap View in FortiIPAM. The rectangles represents sets of subnets reserved for auto-assignment in FortiGate interface. To reserve a set of subnets for FortiGate auto-assignment usage, follow the steps below:
- Log into FortiIPAM, and click on Heatmap View tab.
- Choose an IPv4 class to reserve the IP ranges.
- Locate the IP ranges that are available and click and drag to make a square. The existing squares can also be modified by click and drag to make it smaller or bigger.
- Click Confirm and Submit button at the right hand side to finish reserving the IP range.
Please note within the IP ranges that are reserved, you can still add the subnets to your group of containers. Any IPs that you added to your group conditioners will be shown as Allocated in blue color. FortiGate will not be able to auto assign the subnets that are already allocated.
