When creating a network, DDI orchestrator automatically places it in the proper location within the network tree. You can create three types of networks:
- Container: Containers are used to organize and group other networks and DHCP scopes, providing a hierarchical structure for easier management and visualization of networks. Unlike ranges and scopes, containers do not have network or broadcast addresses.
- Network (range): A network is a block of IP addresses defined for partitioning of an address space. Networks can include reserved addresses for network and broadcast functions.
- DHCP scope: A DHCP scope is a block of valid IP addresses available for lease or assignment to client computers on a subnet. DHCP scopes automatically configure network and broadcast addresses, managing the dynamic assignment of IP addresses within the specified range.
