After your lease is confirmed, your subnet needs to be configured before it can carry traffic.

Accessing Your Leased Subnets

  1. Log in to your IPbnb account at my.ipbnb.com

  2. In the left navigation menu, click Rented Subnets

  3. You'll see a list of all subnets currently leased by your company

  1. Click the subnet you want to configure — this opens the Subnet Management Page

The Subnet Management Page

The Subnet Management Page is your control center for each leased subnet. Here is what each section contains.

Section 1: Subnet Overview

A dashboard displaying general information:

  • Subnet Address: The IP range you leased (e.g., 185.123.45.0/24)

  • Status: Current state (Active, Pending Configuration, Suspended, etc.)

  • Lease Start Date: When your lease began

Section 2: ASN Management

This is the most important section.

Here you manage which Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) are authorized to announce this subnet. See Configuring Your Subnet: Adding an ASN and Setting Up ROA for full instructions.

Key information displayed:

  • Currently Assigned ASNs: List of ASNs already configured

  • ROA Status: Whether Route Origin Authorization is active

  • Add ASN Button: To configure a new ASN

Critical: You MUST add at least one ASN before you can use your subnet.

Section 3: Geo Data

Optional geolocation management:

  • Current Geolocation: Where the subnet is registered

  • Update Geolocation: Request changes if needed

  • Note: This is optional and doesn't affect functionality

See Advanced Configuration: Multiple ASNs, Geo Data, and DNS for instructions.

Section 4: DNS Management

Optional reverse DNS (PTR records) configuration:

  • Current PTR Records: Reverse DNS entries

  • Add/Edit PTR Records: Configure hostname resolution

  • Note: Recommended for mail servers, optional otherwise

See Advanced Configuration: Multiple ASNs, Geo Data, and DNS for instructions.

Section 5: Custom Requests

Contact helpdesk for issues that cannot be resolved through the platform interface:

  • Technical problems

  • Billing disputes

  • Configuration assistance

  • Special requirements

When you submit a custom request:

  • It goes directly to IPbnb support team

  • Response within 24 hours

  • Request history is tracked

Section 6: Terminate Subnet

Option to end your lease:

  • Terminate Button: Starts termination process

  • Warning messages displayed

  • Confirmation required

See the Managing Your Subnet guide for detailed termination instructions.

What to Do Next

Your first mandatory step is adding an Autonomous System Number (ASN) to your subnet. Until this is done and a Route Origin Authorization (ROA) is created by the subnet owner, your subnet cannot carry traffic.
