Which data types can be used with extensible attributes?

• A. String, List, Integer, Email, URL, Date
• B. Boolean, Binary
• C. IPv4, IPv6
• D. MAC addresses

Answer: (A)

Extensible attributes are metadata fields attached to Infoblox objects that must use predefined data types so values can be validated and leveraged in searches and reporting. The valid data types you can use are String for text, List for multiple values, Integer for whole numbers, Email for email addresses, URL for web links, and Date for calendar dates. Other data types like Boolean or Binary aren’t supported for extensible attributes, and network identifiers such as IPv4/IPv6 addresses or MAC addresses aren’t defined as EA data types, since they represent addresses rather than simple attribute values.
