It is effectively a very large Threat Database that is managed by the Infoblox Threat Intelligence Team. From its database, the Infoblox RPZ feeds are generated.

However, any existing ranges in the subnet will not allow any “use subnet OPH” option. For any existing ranges in the subnet, you will need to recreate them if you want them to inherit the subnets OPH assignment values. text/html 2026-03-24T21:46:27+00:00 bstafford (bstafford@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.staffordnet.uk/doku.php?id=infoblox_uddi:aws&rev=1774388787&do=diff AWS Route 53 Both NIOS and BloxOne DDI integrate with AWS Route 53. Note that Route-53 Private Zones are only accessible to IP addresses located within the VPCs that are assigned to the Private Zones. This means you cannot query x.x.x.2 from on-prem. This is where NIOS integration comes in very handy. text/html 2026-03-24T21:46:21+00:00 bstafford (bstafford@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.staffordnet.uk/doku.php?id=infoblox_uddi:aws_route53&rev=1774388781&do=diff text/html 2026-03-24T21:22:18+00:00 bstafford (bstafford@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.staffordnet.uk/doku.php?id=infoblox_nios:dhcp&rev=1774387338&do=diff NIOS DHCP For DHCP starvation prevention, the most common recommendation is to control/prevent it at the switch fabric layer. The “Disable for DHCP” option in Networks is useful when you are in the process of setting up the DHCP server. Clear this after you have configured the server and are ready to have it serve DHCP for this network. text/html 2026-03-21T01:04:49+00:00 bstafford (bstafford@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.staffordnet.uk/doku.php?id=linux:networking&rev=1774055089&do=diff Linux IP Command here Show Subnet Data sudo apt install sipcalc sipcalc 192.168.1.0/24 -a Show Network Data Use nmcli nmcli device show or #!/bin/bash INTERFACE=ens34 echo " Interface: $INTERFACE" ip -4 addr show $INTERFACE | grep inet | awk -F " " '{print " IPv4: " $2}' ip route | grep default | grep "metric 100" | awk -F " " '{print " Gateway: " $3}' resolvectl -i $INTERFACE status --no-pager | awk '/DNS Server/,0' nmcli connection show Wired\ connect… text/html 2026-03-19T23:06:42+00:00 bstafford (bstafford@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.staffordnet.uk/doku.php?id=infoblox_nios:upgrade&rev=1773961602&do=diff NIOS Upgrade First Rule Of Upgrading NIOS - Read the release notes.

This enables you to show the different MAC addresses that have all been issued a given IP address. Remember that syslog forwarding of query/response logs can have a major impact on performance.
