Hi,
We have a number of templates setup in our dashboard to manage different site types for the MX's we have.
As part of the templates, we issue out subnets for each VLAN.
I just have a question about, if we change a network to be bound by a different template, will it just continue with the current Subnets it has been assigned initially, or will they be issued new ranges?
Sorry if this is a silly question, just wanted to be sure before i move a network over though.
Cheers
Neil
Solved! Go to solution.
So I just tried this out on some of my test hardware/networks and it did change the subnets of the. Below are screenshots of the same network that was moved from one template to another and both templates having the same subnet settings for the VLANs.
What are the subnet settings you have on the original template and the new template? If the templates are set to use a unique subnet from a larger range, I think it would just get a random subnet assigned to it from within the larger range. That way the template could keep track of the subnets to ensure networks in the template do not have any overlap.
Is there a reason you don't use the same template for both types of network stacks?
I have to do this exact task within the next 7 days so would be keen to know the answer ...

I've just re-bound a bunch of networks from one template to another (and the second template was a copy of the first) - and it does reset the IP addressing.
