Function

This API is used to update a port.

URI

PUT /v2.0/ports/{port_id}

Table 1 describes the parameters.

**Table 1** Parameter description
Name	Mandatory	Description
port_id	Yes	Specifies the port ID, which uniquely identifies the port.

Request Parameters

**Table 2** Request parameter
Parameter	Type	Mandatory	Description
port	port object	Yes	Specifies the port object list. For details, see Table 3. You must specify at least one attribute when updating a port.

**Table 3** **port** objects
Attribute	Mandatory	Type	Description
name	No	String	Specifies the port name.
security_groups	No	Array of strings	Specifies the UUID of the security group, for example, "security_groups": ["a0608cbf-d047-4f54-8b28-cd7b59853fff"]. This is an extended attribute. This parameter cannot be left blank.
allowed_address_pairs	No	Array of allowed_address_pairs objects	Specifies the IP address and MAC address pair. This is an extended attribute. For details, see Table 4. Instructions: The IP address cannot be 0.0.0.0. Configure a dedicated security group for the port if the parameter allowed_address_pairs has a large CIDR block (subnet mask less than 24). If the value of allowed_address_pairs is 1.1.1.1/0, the source/destination check is disabled. In the hardware SDN networking plan, the ip_address attribute value cannot be in CIDR format. To assign a virtual IP address to an ECS, the IP address configured in allowed_address_pairs must be an existing ECS NIC IP address. Otherwise, the virtual IP address cannot be used for communication. Set allowed_address_pairs of the cloud server to 1.1.1.1/0.
extra_dhcp_opts	No	Array of extra_dhcp_opt objects	Specifies the extended DHCP option. This is an extended attribute. For details, see Table 5.
binding:profile	No	Object	Specifies the user-defined settings. This is an extended attribute. Instructions: The internal_elb field is in boolean type and is available to common tenants. Set the value of this parameter to true only when you assign a virtual IP address to an internal network load balancer. Common tenants do not have the permission to change the value of this field, which is maintained by the system. Example: {"internal_elb": true} The disable_security_groups field is in boolean type and is available to common tenants. The default value is false. In high-performance communication scenarios, you can set the parameter value to true, which makes this parameter to be available to common tenants. You can specify this parameter when creating a port. Currently, the value of this parameter can only be set to true. Example: {"disable_security_groups": true }, Currently, the value can only be set to true. When the value is set to true, the FWaaS function does not take effect.
binding:vnic_type	No	String	Specifies the type of the bound vNIC. normal: Softswitch

**Table 4** **allowed_address_pairs** objects
Name	Mandatory	Type	Description
ip_address	Yes	String	Specifies the IP address. You cannot set it to 0.0.0.0/0. Configure a dedicated security group for the port if the parameter allowed_address_pairs has a large CIDR block (subnet mask less than 24). If the value of allowed_address_pairs is 1.1.1.1/0, the source/destination check is disabled. Set allowed_address_pairs of the cloud server to 1.1.1.1/0. If the value of parameter allowed_address_pairs is specified, parameter ip_address is mandatory.
mac_address	No	String	Specifies the MAC address.

**Table 5** **extra_dhcp_opt** objects
Attribute	Mandatory	Type	Description
opt_name	No	String	Specifies the option name.
opt_value	No	String	Specifies the option value.

Example Request

Change the name of the port whose ID is 7a9a954a-eb41-4954-a300-11ab17a361a2 to port-test02.

PUT https://{Endpoint}/v2.0/ports/7a9a954a-eb41-4954-a300-11ab17a361a2

    "port": {
           "name": "port-test02"

Response Parameters

**Table 6** Response parameter
Parameter	Type	Description
port	port object	Specifies the port object list. For details, see Table 7.

**Table 7** **port** objects
Attribute	Type	Description
id	String	Specifies the port ID. A maximum of 255 characters are allowed. This parameter is not mandatory when you query ports.
name	String	Specifies the port name.
network_id	String	Specifies the ID of the network to which the port belongs.
admin_state_up	Boolean	Specifies the administrative status. The default value is true.
mac_address	String	Specifies the port MAC address. For example, "mac_address": "fa:16:3e:9e:ff:55". This value can only be dynamically assigned by the system.
fixed_ips	Array of fixed_ip objects	Specifies the port IP address. For details, see Table 8. For example, the value is "fixed_ips": [{"subnet_id": "4dc70db6-cb7f-4200-9790-a6a910776bba", "ip_address": "192.169.25.79"}]. "fixed_ips": [{"subnet_id": "1fd001aa-6946-4168-86d9-924c7d3ef8fb", "ip_address": "2a07:b980:4030:14::1"}]
device_id	String	Specifies the device ID. This value is automatically maintained by the system and cannot be set or updated manually. The port with this field specified cannot be deleted.
device_owner	String	Specifies the DHCP, router or Nova to which a device belongs. The value can be network:dhcp, network:router_interface_distributed, compute:xxx, neutron:VIP_PORT, neutron:LOADBALANCERV2, neutron:LOADBALANCERV3, network:endpoint_interface, network:nat_gateway, or network:ucmp. (In value compute:xxx, xxx specifies the AZ name, for example, compute:aa-bb-cc indicates that the private IP address is used by an ECS in the aa-bb-cc AZ). This parameter value cannot be updated. You can only set device_owner to neutron:VIP_PORT for a virtual IP address port during port creation.
