Modify IPAM tier

IPAM offers two tiers: Free Tier and Advanced Tier. Switching to the Advanced Tier of Amazon VPC IP Address Manager provides more granular control over your IP address management. This can be beneficial as your network complexity grows, allowing you to better optimize and manage your IP address space. For more information about the features available in the Free Tier and the costs associated with the Advanced Tier, see the IPAM tab in the Amazon VPC pricing page.

Note

Before you can switch from the Advanced Tier to the Free Tier, you must:

• Delete private scope pools.

• Delete non-default private scopes.

• Delete pools with locales different than the IPAM home Region.

• Delete non-default resource discovery associations.

• Delete pool allocations to accounts that are not the IPAM owner.
