Reserve IP
In order to prevent IPAM from allocating a specific IP, the XaaS Blueprint "Reserve IP" can be used. By tagging it as 'RESERVED', vRA will not use the reserved IP to be assigned to an network interface.
A common use case is to create a loadbalancer or a cluster VIP that is not managed by vRA.
Prerequisite
If you want to reserve a specific IP, this IP must not be in use.
