Hi,

If you want to add the extensible attributes while creating the network, you can use the following API:

curl -k -u admin:infoblox -H 'content-type: application/json' -X POST "https://grid-master/wapi/v2.11/network?_return_fields%2B=network,extattrs&_return_as_object=1 " -d '{"network": "1.1.1.0/24","network_view":"public","extattrs":{"Services":{"value":"Metro"},"IP Owner":{"value":"James Bond"}}}'

To update the extensible attributres on an existing network, first fetch the object reference of the network, and then update it as below:

curl -k -u admin:infoblox -H 'content-type: application/json' -X PUT "https://grid-master/wapi/v2.11/network/ZG5zLm5ldHdvcmskNjEuMC4wLjAvMjQvMA:61.0.0.0/24/public?_return_fields%2B=network,extattrs&_return_as_object=1 " -d '{"extattrs":{"Services":{"value":"Metro"},"IP Owner":{"value":"James Bond"}}}'

Hope this is helpful,

Krishna, thanks alot. i can use it now.

Just one more question, i checkd in the API doc, networkcontainer creation parameter is not there. I tried networkcontrainer or network_container to replace in existing API , it doesn't work. can you help? 

https://url/wapi/v2.7/network?_return_fields%2B=network,extattrs&_return_as_object=1

{"network": "14.1.3.0/24","network_view":"Lab View","extattrs":{"Services":{"value":"MetroE"},"IP Owner":{"value":"James Bond"}}}

Hi,

You need to use /networkcontainer endpoint.

Hope that is helpful,

Hi,

The call will look similar to below:

curl -k -u admin:infoblox -H 'content-type: application/json' -X POST "https://grid-master/wapi/v2.9/networkcontainer?_return_fields%2B=network&_return_as_object=1 " -d '{"network": "1.0.0.0/8"}'
