The Analyze tab Blocks List displays block inventory according to CIDR. It displays use status, sellable status, aggregatable status, and estimated min/max value of sellable space.
...
List Display options include the following:
Filter / Search List:
At the top of the list, you can select the number of blocks to view per page (default is set to 20), and search/ filter for blocks.
...
Tree View shows child blocks in a hierarchy format. Click the +/- box next to the CIDR to expand or close the tree view hierarchy for the netblock.

List management options are available in the top header of the analyze list view:
Refresh: Refreshes the list data
Reinitialize: Performs a more intensive reinitialization of data and status from provided sources - this may take some time, depending on the amount of blocks in inventory and sources.
Get Suggestions: Provides optimization strategies based on the current use and status of the netblocks. Suggestions may be saved as a named optimization plan to compare against additional suggested plans under the Planning tab.

Virtual Blocks Tab
...
The Virtual tab displays blocks that are not directly in use, but are inherited subnets under the netblocks discovered by scans. These blocks have an estimated total value based on the full netblock mask being free and available to sell.
Working with the Analyze Tab
Before You Begin
The Analyze tab interprets the netblock information gained from the Discovery and Inventory tabs and then combines that data with current available pricing estimations to provide an as-is valuation of free blocks.
...
Once the data has been confirmed, you’re ready to work under the Analyze tab!
Step 1: Review Netblock Status
The Analyze list is populated with netblocks which have been marked as unused or unknown, and are sellable or potentially sellable blocks.
In this tab, it is best to review netblock status (in-use, free, unknown, ignored) to confirm the correct status was assigned under the Inventory list.
Update Netblock Use
To make changes to the use status of a block, right click anywhere on a row to open the Action Menu and select to mark netblock use as unknown, in use, free, or ignored.
...
To make changes to the use status of a block, right click anywhere on a row to open the Action Menu and select to mark netblock use as unknown, in use, free, or ignored. The marked use will be considered when determining sellable status, valuation estimates, and for optimization suggestions.
Step 2: Get Suggestions
...
Once netblock use status has been reviewed for accuracy, click “Get Suggestions” to see optimization strategies (Note: Depending on the size of netblock inventory, the suggested strategy may take a minute to load).
Get suggestions displays three panels and their associated values:
Network structure before plan - This shows the network structure as currently discovered, with pricing estimates based on keeping sellable blocks as-is at their current hierarchy location and size.
Results (after execution) - This shows the network structure optimized to locate as many sellable blocks as possible contiguously, within the current structure strategy. This consolidates as many sellable blocks as possible, without otherwise making changes to the network structure.
Minimal Structure - Minimal structure proposes the greatest possible consolidation of sellable blocks, including minimizing the existing network hierarchy and reallocating assignments to only use the minimal blocks needed. This allows for far greater availability of contiguous sellable blocks, larger masks, and higher profit potential.
Next Steps
Next, proceed to the Planning tab to review steps that can be taken to optimize your network for additional free space.
