Required - An ethernet network interface record containing the following fields:
  • role - String - The role of the network interface. One of: regular, monitor, disabled.
  • ipversion - String - The verson of the IP address that is configured on the network interface. One of: ipv4, ipv6.
  • ip - String - The IP address that is configured on the network interface. Required when ipversion is ipv4 or (ipversion is ipv6 and is_auto_ip is false). The subnet that is computed from the IP address and the mask must not be the same subnet that is configured on the management interface.
  • mask - String - The netmask that is configured on the network interface. This parameter is required when ipversion is ipv4. The subnet that is computed from the IP address and the mask must not be the same subnet that is configured on the management interface.
  • is_auto_ip - Boolean - Is the IP auto-configured. Required.
  • is_moving_config_with_active_ha - Boolean - Applies the same settings to a new active HA server during failover. This parameter can be true only when the server host is an active HA server host.
