Overview

This node updates an existing VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) in the Hudu system. It is useful for scenarios where you need to modify VLAN details such as its name, description, status, associated company, or other metadata. For example, you can update the VLAN's archived status, change its company association, or modify its VLAN ID and notes.

Use Case Examples

1. Updating the VLAN name and description to reflect new network configurations.
2. Archiving a VLAN that is no longer in use.
3. Changing the VLAN's associated company or status based on organizational changes.

Troubleshooting

• Ensure the VLAN ID provided exists; otherwise, the update will fail with an error indicating the VLAN was not found.
• Verify that the API authentication token is valid and has sufficient permissions to update VLANs.
• If using options fields (e.g., company_id, status_list_item_id), ensure the selected values exist in the system to avoid invalid reference errors.
• Common error messages include authorization errors, invalid VLAN ID, or malformed update fields. Check the error message details and correct the input accordingly.
