Change IP range of a Network

POST

/networks/{id}/actions/change_ip_range

Changes the IP range of a Network. IP ranges can only be extended and never shrunk. You can only add IPs at the end of an existing IP range. This means that the IP part of your existing range must stay the same and you can only change its netmask.

For example if you have a range 10.0.0.0/16 you want to extend then your new range must also start with the IP 10.0.0.0. Your CIDR netmask /16 may change to a number that is smaller than 16 thereby increasing the IP range. So valid entries would be 10.0.0.0/15, 10.0.0.0/14, 10.0.0.0/13 and so on.

After changing the IP range you will have to adjust the routes on your connected Servers by either rebooting them or manually changing the routes to your private Network interface.

Note: if the Network object changes during the request, the response will be a “conflict” error.
