Abstract:
In some implementations, a router device may identify a network address assignment event. The router device may determine first location information for a deployment site of the router device based on identifying the network address assignment event. The router device may convert the first location information into second location information. The router device may identify a block of network addresses, of a group of blocks of network addresses, corresponding to a region of a set of defined regions. The router device may select, from the block of network addresses, an available network address for the router device. The router device may assign the available network address to an interface of the router device. The router device may enable routing using the interface based on assigning the available network address to the interface.
