| Preseeded Allocation Types: | |
| Customer netblock (default) | A direct allocation /30 or larger to a customer. Note that this does NOT include RADIUS-routed "netblocks". Non-customer systems should use the "End-use netblock" type. |
| Static IP - Server pool | A single IP from a pool designated for servers |
| Static IP - Cable | A single IP address from a designated pool on the cable network. |
| Static IP - DSL | A single IP address from a designated pool on the DSL network. |
| Static IP - Dialup | A single IP address from a designated pool on a dialup RAS. |
| Static IP - Wireless | A single IP address from a designated pool on a wireless connection. |
| Static pool - Servers | A pool of IP addresses available for one-by-one assignment to servers in a POP. |
| Static pool - Cable | A pool of IP addresses available for one-by-one assignment to customers on cable. |
| Static pool - DSL | A pool of IP addresses available for one-by-one assignment to customers on DSL. Individual IPs will be "assigned" to the customer's city, but the pool will remain assigned to its nominal origin. |
| Static pool - Dialup | A pool of IP addresses available for one-by-one assignment to dialup customers. |
| Static pool - Wireless | A pool of IP addresses available for one-by-one assignment to customers on a wireless connection. |
| End-use netblock | A /30 or larger allocation for arbitrary services - note this should not be used for customer connections. Use this if exact tracking of IP usage in the block is not required. |
| Dialup netblock | Netblock assigned to one or more RAS units in a POP |
| Dynamic DSL block | Netblock for (mostly residential) PPPoE DSL. |
| Dynamic cable block | Netblock for (mostly residential) DHCP cable. |
| Dynamic WiFi block | Netblock for (mostly residential) (mostly) PPPoE wireless. |
| Dynamic VoIP block | Netblock for DHCP-assigned VoIP services. |
| Static IP - LAN/POP | A single IP address from a designated pool for internal LANs - either at a single POP or for a VPN. |
| Static IP - Managment | A single IP address from a designated pool for managed devices. |
| Static IP - Wifi CPE | A single IP address from a designated pool for wireless CPE devices. |
| Static pool - LAN/POP | A pool of IP addresses available for one-by-one assignment to internal LAN systems or VPNs. |
| Static Pool - Managment | A pool of IP addresses available for assignment to managed devices. |
| Static pool - Wifi CPE | A pool of IP addresses available for assignment to wireless CPE devices. |
| Reserve for WAN blocks | Reserve a chunk of IP space for core routers/etc. |
| Reserve for dynamic-route DSL netblocks | Reserve a chunk of IP space for netblocks configured on the customer end via PPPoE/RADIUS. Note that this is similar to the static DSL pool, but IP space is to be allocated as /30 and larger netblocks, not single static IPs. |
| Reserve for ATM | Reserve a chunk of IP space for allocation to customers on ATM. |
| Reserve for fibre | Reserve a chunk of IP space for customers on a fibre connection. |
| WAN block | Individual netblock assignment for a core router. Always taken from a block which has previously been reserved for such assignments. |
| Dynamic-route DSL netblock | Customer assignment for a netblock configured on the customer end via PPPoE/RADIUS. Always taken from a block which has previously been reserved for such assignments. |
| ATM block | Customer assignment for a customer on ATM. Always taken from a block which has previously been reserved for such assignments. |
| Fibre | Customer assignment for a customer on fibre. Always taken from a block which has previously been reserved for such assignments. |
| Routing | Blocks not actually assigned to a service on their own, but which have been routed to individual POPs- typically /24, /23, /22 |
| Master block | Allocations provided by the regional registry (ARIN, RIPE, LACNIC, AfriNIC, or APNIC) |
