Overview

This node operation updates an existing IP address record within a specified company in the Hudu system. It allows users to modify various fields of the IP address such as the address itself, associated asset ID, comments, description, fully qualified domain name (FQDN), network ID, DNS validation status, and the IP address status. This operation is useful for maintaining accurate and up-to-date IP address information in an organization's asset management or network inventory system.

Use Case Examples

  1. Updating the IP address details for a specific IP address ID within a company to reflect changes in network configuration.
  2. Modifying the status of an IP address from 'unassigned' to 'assigned' after allocation to a device.
  3. Adding comments or description to an IP address record for better documentation.
