Updating an EIP

Function

This API is used to bind an EIP to a NIC, or unbind an EIP from a NIC.

Note

Note the following when you use EIPs of the Dedicated Load Balancer (5_gray) type:

  • In eu-de, EIPs of the Dedicated Load Balancer (5_gray) type cannot be assigned anymore. You can assign EIPs of the BGP (5_bgp) type.

  • Existing EIPs of the Dedicated Load Balancer (5_gray) type can be bound to dedicated or shared load balancers.

    • The EIP console cannot be used to bind EIPs to or unbind them from dedicated load balancers.

    • You can use APIs to bind EIPs to or unbind them from dedicated load balancers. For details, see Binding an EIP and Unbinding an EIP.

    • EIPs of this type can be bound to or unbound from shared load balancers using the EIP console or APIs.

    • You are advised to bind BGP EIPs to or unbind them from dedicated load balancers.

  • Do not add EIPs of the dedicated load balancer type (5_gray) and other types to the same shared bandwidth. Otherwise, the bandwidth limit policy will not take effect.

    Description

    port_id

    No

    String

    • Specifies the port ID.

    • The value must be an existing port ID. If this parameter is not included or the parameter value is left blank, the EIP is unbound. If the specified port ID does not exist or has already been bound with an EIP, an error message will be displayed.

      Leaving this parameter blank does not unbind the EIP from the dedicated load balancer.

    alias

    No

    String

    • Specifies the EIP name.

    • The value can contain 1 to 64 characters, including letters, digits, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and periods (.).

  • Example request 1 (Binding an EIP to a NIC)

    PUT https://{Endpoint}/v1/{project_id}/publicips/{publicip_id}
