    • JSON example for not changing IP, or using DHCP

      We are failing over our VPGs without changing IP addresses, keeping a static IP that has already been configured in the OS.  I had ran a scipt to update all of our VPGs with updated vmware networks, and in doing so I set some NIC settings that shouldn’t be set.  Now I’m curious if I […]
