NetBox supports the concept of individual tenants within its parent organization. Typically, these are used to represent individual customers or internal departments.

Tenants

A tenant represents a discrete organization. Certain resources within NetBox can be assigned to a tenant. This makes it very convenient to track which resources are assigned to which customers, for instance.

The following objects can be assigned to tenants:

• Sites
• Racks
• Devices
• VRFs
• Prefixes
• IP addresses
• VLANs
• Circuits

If a prefix or IP address is not assigned to a tenant, it will appear to inherit the tenant to which its parent VRF is assigned, if any.

Tenant Groups

Tenants can be grouped by type. For instance, you might create one group called "Customers" and one called "Acquisitions." The assignment of tenants to groups is optional.
