Abstract
In response to receiving a reservation request at a provider network, metadata indicating that a group of network addresses of a subnet is reserved for operations of a particular category is stored. A first request for an operation, requiring assignment of an address of the reserved group is rejected if the operation does not belong to the particular category, even if the address is not in use. In response to a second request for an operation which does belong to the particular category, an address of the reserved group is assigned.
