Creating a Route Table¶

Function¶

This API is used to create a route table.

Notes and Constraints

The destination CIDR block of a custom route table cannot be included in the CIDR blocks of the local route.
Each destination CIDR block of a route in the same route table must be unique.
No more than five routes can be created at a time.

URI¶

POST /v1/{project_id}/routetables

Table 1 describes the parameters.
