Curl - Get Next Available IP

[#1]

Hello,

We would like to use script to get the next available IP from a subnet "192.168.1.1". From the refernece guide, the script should be:

curl -k -u admin:infoblox -H 'content-type: application/json' -X POST "https://gridmaster/wapi/v2.11/network/ZG5zLm5ldHdvcmskMTcyLjIxLjEwLjAvMjQvMA:172.21.10.0/24/default?...
=next_available_ip&_return_as_object=1" -d '{"num":1}'

I know "ZG5zLm5ldHdvcmskMTcyLjIxLjEwLjAvMjQvMA:1921.168.1.1/24/default" is the object reference of the subnet 192.168.1.1.

However, how I can get this object reference and then pass as parameter to the above command? 

Great if anyone can share the sample for this.

Thanks.

Raymond.

Hi,

You can combine multiple WAPI calls to achieve your requirement using the /request handler:

curl -X POST 'https://grid-master/wapi/v2.11/request' \
-k -u uname:pwd \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '[
    {
		"method": "GET",
		"object": "network",
        "data":
        {
            "network":"192.168.1.1/24"
        },
        "assign_state": 
		{
			"network_ref": "_ref"
		},
        "discard": true
	},
    {
		"method": "POST",
		"object": "##STATE:network_ref:##",
		"args": 
		{
			"_function": "next_available_ip"
		},
		"enable_substitution": true
    }
]'
