Create a Process for Maintaining Labels

Your network and inventory will change, and you must plan to update labels to reflect those changes.

For example, if a workload is retired and its IP address is reassigned to a workload with a different purpose, you need to update the labels associated with that workload. This is true for both manually uploaded labels and for labels maintained in and ingested from other systems such as a configuration management database (CMDB.)

Create a process to ensure that your labels are updated on a regular, ongoing basis, and add this process to your network-maintenance routine.
