3.6. Network Allocation Wizard

The Network Allocation Wizard is used to automatically add a block based on a mask length, location (you can think of this as a region), and optionally by owner. To access the wizard click 'Allocation Wizard' link on the leftmost frame of your NorthStar window. When presented with the form select the size block you need, the location the block is needed in, and optionally the owner that the new networks supernet must be. The wizard will then search your tree and pick what it thinks is the best block and pass this information on to the new network function. From this point you add the network just like any other, however, you obviously do not need to manually fill in a network and mask length.
