What’s New

Update Host Attributes for IPs in Custom Networks

Applicable when the Network Support feature is enabled for the subscription.

Previously, if you updated host attributes for an IP address using the API, the IP was updated in the Global Default Network only. Now, with this release, you can update host attributes for an IP address in a custom network. Simply specify the network ID during the update request.
