Synopsis ¶

Perform actions on a Vcn resource in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
For action=add_ipv6_vcn_cidr, add an IPv6 CIDR to a VCN. The VCN size is always /56 and assigned by Oracle. Once added the IPv6 CIDR block cannot be removed or modified.
For action=add_vcn_cidr, adds a CIDR block to a VCN. The CIDR block you add: - Must be valid. - Must not overlap with another CIDR block in the VCN, a CIDR block of a peered VCN, or the on-premises network CIDR block. - Must not exceed the limit of CIDR blocks allowed per VCN. Note: Adding a CIDR block places your VCN in an updating state until the changes are complete. You cannot create or update the VCN’s subnets, VLANs, LPGs, or route tables during this operation. The time to completion can take a few minutes. You can use the GetWorkRequest operation to check the status of the update.
For action=change_compartment, moves a VCN into a different compartment within the same tenancy. For information about moving resources between compartments, see Moving Resources to a Different Compartment.
For action=modify_vcn_cidr, updates the specified CIDR block of a VCN. The new CIDR IP range must meet the following criteria: - Must be valid. - Must not overlap with another CIDR block in the VCN, a CIDR block of a peered VCN, or the on-premises network CIDR block. - Must not exceed the limit of CIDR blocks allowed per VCN. - Must include IP addresses from the original CIDR block that are used in the VCN’s existing route rules. - No IP address in an existing subnet should be outside of the new CIDR block range. Note: Modifying a CIDR block places your VCN in an updating state until the changes are complete. You cannot create or update the VCN’s subnets, VLANs, LPGs, or route tables during this operation. The time to completion can vary depending on the size of your network. Updating a small network could take about a minute, and updating a large network could take up to an hour. You can use the GetWorkRequest operation to check the status of the update.
For action=remove_ipv6_vcn_cidr, removing an existing IPv6 CIDR from a VCN.
For action=remove_vcn_cidr, removes a specified CIDR block from a VCN. Notes: - You cannot remove a CIDR block if an IP address in its range is in use. - Removing a CIDR block places your VCN in an updating state until the changes are complete. You cannot create or update the VCN’s subnets, VLANs, LPGs, or route tables during this operation. The time to completion can take a few minutes. You can use the GetWorkRequest operation to check the status of the update.
