SYNTAX

Set-NBDCIMFrontPort [-Id] <UInt64> [[-Device] <UInt16>] [[-Module] <UInt16>] [[-Name] <String>] [[-Label] <String>] [[-Type] <String>] [[-Color] <String>] [[-Rear_Ports] <PSObject[]>] [[-Rear_Port] <UInt64>] [[-Rear_Port_Position] <UInt16>] [[-Description] <String>] [[-Mark_Connected] <Boolean>] [[-Tags] <UInt64[]>] [-Force] [-Raw] [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

Updates an existing front port in Netbox DCIM module. Supports pipeline input for Id parameter.

NOTE: Netbox 4.5+ uses a new port mapping model. The Rear_Port and Rear_Port_Position parameters are deprecated on 4.5+ and will be automatically converted to the new Rear_Ports array format.

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Set-NBDCIMFrontPort -Id 1 -Name "Port 1 Updated"

Updates the name of front port with ID 1.

EXAMPLE 2

Set-NBDCIMFrontPort -Id 1 -Rear_Ports @( @{ rear_port = 100; rear_port_position = 2; position = 1 } )

Updates the rear port mappings using Netbox 4.5+ format.
