Overview

A Network defines a connectivity fabric within a Datum Cloud project. You use it to establish the IP addressing plan for your workloads — choosing which IP families are permitted, how addresses are allocated (IPAM), and the network MTU. Create a Network when you need a dedicated addressable space for the resources in a project.
