Description

The Add-IpamAddressSpace cmdlet adds an address space to IP Address Management (IPAM). A set of connected networks forms an address space. In IPAM, all IP blocks, IP subnets, IP ranges, and IP addresses in a set of connected networks are grouped in an address space container. To support network virtualization, IPAM provides two types of address spaces: provider and customer. By default, all IPAM entities reside in the built-in address space called Default. Non-virtualized network entities, such as a subnet or an IP address range, reside in the Default address space.

Examples

Example 1: Add a provider address space

PS C:\> Add-IpamAddressSpace -Name "ProviderAddSpace01" -ProviderAddressSpace -Description "Provider address space for Contoso"
Name                           : ProviderAddSpace01

Type                           : ProviderAddressSpace

Owner                          :
Description                    : Provider address space for Contoso

AssociatedProviderAddressSpace :
Tenant                         :
VMNetwork                      :
IsolationMethod                :
Ipv4PercentageUtilized         : 0

Ipv6PercentageUtilized         : 0

CustomConfiguration            :

This command adds a provider address space named ProviderAddSpace01 to IPAM with a description.

Example 2: Add a customer address space

PS C:\> Add-IpamAddressSpace -Name "CustomerAddSpace01" -CustomerAddressSpace -AssociatedProviderAddressSpace "ProviderAddSpace01" -IsolationMethod NVGRE -PassThru
Name                           : CustomerAddSpace01

Type                           : CustomerAddressSpace

Owner                          :

Description                    :

AssociatedProviderAddressSpace : TestProviderAddressSpace

Tenant                         :

VMNetwork                      :

IsolationMethod                : NVGRE

Ipv4PercentageUtilized         : 0

Ipv6PercentageUtilized         : 0

CustomConfiguration            :

This command adds a customer address space named CustomerAddSpace01 to IPAM. The command specifies that the provider address space named ProviderAddSpace01 is associated with the customer address space. The command specifies the Network Virtualization using Generic Routing Encapsulation (NVGRE) network virtualization mechanism for the address space.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.

For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.
