Network → Create Virtual MAC
AI-generatedSummary
Creates a virtual MAC address for an OVH dedicated server by sending the selected IP address and virtual MAC type to OVH. Requires OVH API credentials.
Inputs
- Server Name or ID (required) — Select the dedicated server or enter its ID. The server name is used in the API request path.
- IP Address Name or ID (required) — Select an IP address associated with the server or enter its ID; this is assigned to the virtual MAC.
- Virtual MAC Type (required) — Choose OVH (
ovh, the default) or VMware (vmware).
Output shape
A single item per input item, containing the OVH API response as JSON.
The operation makes a POST request to create the virtual MAC. If the API response is an array, each array element becomes a separate output item. Missing server or IP values cause an operation error; with Continue On Fail enabled, errors are returned in an
errorfield.
