Set-NBDCIMRearPort

Since

v4.4.7

SYNOPSIS

Updates an existing rear port in Netbox DCIM module.

SYNTAX

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

DESCRIPTION

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

NOTE: Netbox 4.5+ introduces bidirectional port mappings. You can now specify front port mappings directly when updating a rear port using the Front_Ports parameter.

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Set-NBDCIMRearPort -Id 1 -Name "Rear 1 Updated"

Updates the name of rear port with ID 1.

EXAMPLE 2

Set-NBDCIMRearPort -Id 1 -Front_Ports @( @{ front_port = 100; front_port_position = 1; position = 1 } )

Updates the front port mappings using Netbox 4.5+ bidirectional format.
