Definition
Infoblox process that addresses sustained token overage by adjusting the subscription going forward instead of disabling the service. Pricing page: "There are no back charges for past overages."
Commercial rules
Triggered when the rolling three-month average for any token type exceeds purchased tokens. The Infoblox Portal notifies the user and the account team, who right-size tokens and amend the contract midterm or at renewal. The Addendum separately provides Quarterly Reviews and an additional-order obligation.
