So I'm just getting back into Netdot, and this feature (802) would still
be very useful. Address blocks could be used for authorization, DHCP
scopes, and selecting IPs to assign (as most of our subnets are /16, we
hit SUBNET_BLOCK_VIEW_MAX_PREFIX and so delegated users can't actually
pick an IP in /netdot/user_management/hostinfo_tasks.html)
Did you get any further in working on it? If not, where would I start
looking to implement it myself?
Thanks,
