🔶 High Risk Operations — Some operations on this resource have high danger level. Destructive operations may require confirmation.

name - Required String
Name of the Address Allocator. Must be unique within the namespace

namespace - Required String
Namespace where the Address Allocator will be created

annotations - Optional Map
Annotations is an unstructured key value map stored with a resource that may be set by external tools to store and retrieve arbitrary metadata

description - Optional String
Human readable description for the object

disable - Optional Bool
A value of true will administratively disable the object

labels - Optional Map
Labels is a user defined key value map that can be attached to resources for organization and filtering

address_allocation_scheme - Optional Block
Decides the scheme to be used to allocate addresses from the configured address pool
See Address Allocation Scheme below for details.

address_pool - Required List
Address pool from which the allocator carves out subnets or addresses to its clients

mode - Required String Defaults to LOCAL
Possible values are LOCAL, GLOBAL_PER_SITE_NODE
[Enum: LOCAL|GLOBAL_PER_SITE_NODE] Mode of the address allocator Address allocator is for VERs within the local cluster or site Allocation is per site and then per node

timeouts - Optional Block
See Timeouts below for details.

In addition to all arguments above, the following attributes are exported:

id - Optional String
Unique identifier for the resource


An address_allocation_scheme block supports the following:

allocation_unit - Optional Number
Prefix length indicating the size of each allocated subnet. For example, if this is specified as 30, subnets of /30 will be allocated from the given address pool

local_interface_address_offset - Optional Number
Used to derive address for the local interface from the allocated subnet. If Local Interface Address Type is set to ‘Offset from beginning of Subnet’, this offset value is added to the allocated subnet and used as the local interface address. For example, if the allocated subnet is

local_interface_address_type - Optional String Defaults to LOCAL_INTERFACE_ADDRESS_OFFSET_FROM_SUBNET_BEGIN
Possible values are LOCAL_INTERFACE_ADDRESS_OFFSET_FROM_SUBNET_BEGIN, LOCAL_INTERFACE_ADDRESS_OFFSET_FROM_SUBNET_END, LOCAL_INTERFACE_ADDRESS_FROM_PREFIX
[Enum: LOCAL_INTERFACE_ADDRESS_OFFSET_FROM_SUBNET_BEGIN|LOCAL_INTERFACE_ADDRESS_OFFSET_FROM_SUBNET_END|LOCAL_INTERFACE_ADDRESS_FROM_PREFIX] Dictates how local interface address is derived from the allocated subnet Use Nth address of the allocated subnet as the local interface address, N being the Local Interface Address Offset. For example, if the allocated subnet is 169.254.0.0/30, Local Interface Address Offset is set to 2 and

A timeouts block supports the following:

create - Optional String (Defaults to 10 minutes)
Used when creating the resource

delete - Optional String (Defaults to 10 minutes)
Used when deleting the resource

read - Optional String (Defaults to 5 minutes)
Used when retrieving the resource

update - Optional String (Defaults to 10 minutes)
Used when updating the resource
