Properties

Name | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
ipAddress | xsd:string | IPv4 address is specified using dotted decimal notation. For example, "192.0.2.1". IPv6 addresses are 128-bit addresses specified as eight fields of up to four hexadecimal digits. A colon separates each field (:). For example, 2001:DB8:101::230:6eff:fe04:d9ff. The address can also consist of the symbol '::' to represent multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous 0's only once in an address as described in RFC 2373.
operation | xsd:string | Requires one of: "add" and "remove" or "change" See HostConfigChangeOperation.
prefixLength | xsd:int | Denotes the length of a generic Internet network address prefix. The prefix length for IPv4 the value range is 0-32. For IPv6 prefixLength is a decimal value range 0-128. A value of n corresponds to an IP address mask that has n contiguous 1-bits from the most significant bit (MSB), with all other bits set to 0. A value of zero is valid only if the calling context defines it.
