metalcloud-cli subnet update

Update an existing subnet

Synopsis

Update an existing subnet in the MetalCloud infrastructure.

This command updates a subnet with the configuration provided through JSON input. Only the fields included in the configuration will be updated, other fields remain unchanged.

Arguments: subnet_id The ID of the subnet to update

Required Flags: —config-source Source of the subnet configuration updates. Can be ‘pipe’ to read from stdin, or a path to a JSON file containing the configuration.

Configuration Format: The JSON configuration can contain the following fields (all optional for updates):

label: Human-readable label for the subnet
name: Subnet name
defaultGatewayAddress: Gateway IP address
isPool: Whether this subnet is an IP pool (true/false)
allocationDenylist: List of IP ranges to exclude from allocation
childOverlapAllowRules: Rules for allowing child subnet overlaps
tags: Key-value pairs for tagging
annotations: Additional metadata

Note: Core network settings (networkAddress, prefixLength) typically cannot be modified after subnet creation due to infrastructure constraints.

Examples:

Update subnet from stdin

echo ’{“label”:“updated-subnet”,“isPool”:true}’ | metalcloud-cli subnet update 123 —config-source pipe

Update subnet from file

metalcloud-cli subnet update 456 —config-source updates.json

Update only tags
