CreateIpv6Block

1. API Description

This API is used to create one or more IPv6 CIDR blocks.

Prerequisites

• Query stock: call DescribeAvailableIpv6Resources to check available resources.

Note

• An IPv6 CIDR block contains 500 available IPs.

• This API is an async API. A CIDR block ID list is returned after the creation request is sent. However, it does not mean the creation has been completed. The status of the CIDR block will be CREATING during the creation. You can use DescribeCidrBlocks to query the status of the CIDR block. If the status changes from Creating to Available, it means that the CIDR block has been created successfully; CREATE_FAILED means the CIDR block has been created failed. Any operations on the instances are not allowed while creating.

2. Input Parameters

The following request parameter list only provides API request parameters.

Parameter Name	Required	Type	Description
zoneId	Yes	String	Zone ID to which the CIDR blocks belong.
name	No	String	CIDR block name to be displayed. This parameter can contain up to 64 characters.
amount	No	Integer	Quantity of IPv6 CIDR blocks you want to purchase. Default value: 1.
resourceGroupId	No	String	Resource group ID where the CIDR blocks reside. If an available VLAN exists in the specified zone, this parameter will be ignored. The created CIDR blocks will be added to the resource group of the VLAN.

3. Output Parameters

Parameter Name	Type	Description
requestId	String	The unique request ID, which is returned for each request. RequestId is required for locating a problem.
