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.

oci network vcn add-ipv6-vcn-cidr [OPTIONS]


--vcn-id [text]

The OCID <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm> of the VCN.

--byoipv6-cidr-detail [complex type]

This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--from-json [text]

Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.

The --generate-full-command-json-input option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

--if-match [text]

For optimistic concurrency control. In the PUT or DELETE call for a resource, set the if-match parameter to the value of the etag from a previous GET or POST response for that resource. The resource will be updated or deleted only if the etag you provide matches the resource’s current etag value.

--ipv6-private-cidr-block [text]

This field is not required and should only be specified if a ULA or private IPv6 prefix is desired for VCN’s private IP address space. See`IPv6 Addresses <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Network/Concepts/ipv6.htm>`__.

Example:

2001:0db8:0123::/48` or `fd00:1000:0:1::/64


--is-oracle-gua-allocation-enabled [boolean]

Indicates whether Oracle will allocate an IPv6 GUA. Only one prefix of /56 size can be allocated by Oracle as a GUA.

--max-wait-seconds [integer]

The maximum time to wait for the work request to reach the state defined by --wait-for-state. Defaults to 1200 seconds.

--wait-for-state [text]

This operation asynchronously creates, modifies or deletes a resource and uses a work request to track the progress of the operation. Specify this option to perform the action and then wait until the work request reaches a certain state. Multiple states can be specified, returning on the first state. For example, --wait-for-state SUCCEEDED --wait-for-state FAILED would return on whichever lifecycle state is reached first. If timeout is reached, a return code of 2 is returned. For any other error, a return code of 1 is returned.

Accepted values are:

ACCEPTED, FAILED, IN_PROGRESS, SUCCEEDED


--wait-interval-seconds [integer]

Check every --wait-interval-seconds to see whether the work request to see if it has reached the state defined by --wait-for-state. Defaults to 30 seconds.

Use oci --help for help on global parameters.

  • Description
  • Usage
  • Required Parameters
  • Optional Parameters
  • Global Parameters
  • Examples

Creates a new virtual cloud network (VCN). For more information, see VCNs and Subnets <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Network/Tasks/managingVCNs.htm>.

For the VCN, you specify a list of one or more IPv4 CIDR blocks that meet the following criteria:

The CIDR blocks must be valid. - They must not overlap with each other or with the on-premises network CIDR block. - The number of CIDR blocks does not exceed the limit of CIDR blocks allowed per VCN.

For a CIDR block, Oracle recommends that you use one of the private IP address ranges specified in RFC 1918 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1918> (10.0.0.0/8, 172.16/12, and 192.168/16). Example: 172.16.0.0/16. The CIDR blocks can range from /16 to /30.

For the purposes of access control, you must provide the OCID <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm> of the compartment where you want the VCN to reside. Consult an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure administrator in your organization if you’re not sure which compartment to use. Notice that the VCN doesn’t have to be in the same compartment as the subnets or other Networking Service components. For more information about compartments and access control, see Overview of the IAM Service <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Identity/Concepts/overview.htm>. For information about OCIDs, see Resource Identifiers <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm>.

You may optionally specify a display name for the VCN, otherwise a default is provided. It does not have to be unique, and you can change it. Avoid entering confidential information.

You can also add a DNS label for the VCN, which is required if you want the instances to use the Interent and VCN Resolver option for DNS in the VCN. For more information, see DNS in Your Virtual Cloud Network <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Network/Concepts/dns.htm>.

The VCN automatically comes with a default route table, default security list, and default set of DHCP options. The OCID <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm> for each is returned in the response. You can’t delete these default objects, but you can change their contents (that is, change the route rules, security list rules, and so on).

The VCN and subnets you create are not accessible until you attach an internet gateway or set up a Site-to-Site VPN or FastConnect. For more information, see Overview of the Networking Service <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Network/Concepts/overview.htm>.

oci network vcn create [OPTIONS]


--compartment-id, -c [text]

--byoipv6-cidr-details [complex type]

The list of BYOIPv6 OCIDs and BYOIPv6 CIDR blocks required to create a VCN that uses BYOIPv6 ranges.

This option is a JSON list with items of type Byoipv6CidrDetails. For documentation on Byoipv6CidrDetails please see our API reference: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/api/#/en/iaas/20160918/datatypes/Byoipv6CidrDetails. This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--cidr-block [text]

Deprecated. Do not set this value. Use cidrBlocks instead. Example: 10.0.0.0/16

--cidr-blocks [complex type]

The list of one or more IPv4 CIDR blocks for the VCN that meet the following criteria: - The CIDR blocks must be valid. - They must not overlap with each other or with the on-premises network CIDR block. - The number of CIDR blocks must not exceed the limit of CIDR blocks allowed per VCN.

Important: Do not specify a value for cidrBlock. Use this parameter instead. This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--defined-tags [complex type]

Defined tags for this resource. Each key is predefined and scoped to a namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm>.

Example:

{"Operations": {"CostCenter": "42"}}


This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--display-name [text]

A user-friendly name. Does not have to be unique, and it’s changeable. Avoid entering confidential information.

--dns-label [text]

A DNS label for the VCN, used in conjunction with the VNIC’s hostname and subnet’s DNS label to form a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for each VNIC within this subnet (for example, bminstance-1.subnet123.vcn1.oraclevcn.com). Not required to be unique, but it’s a best practice to set unique DNS labels for VCNs in your tenancy. Must be an alphanumeric string that begins with a letter. The value cannot be changed.

You must set this value if you want instances to be able to use hostnames to resolve other instances in the VCN. Otherwise the Internet and VCN Resolver will not work.

For more information, see DNS in Your Virtual Cloud Network <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Network/Concepts/dns.htm>.

Example:

vcn1


--freeform-tags [complex type]

Free-form tags for this resource. Each tag is a simple key-value pair with no predefined name, type, or namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm>.

Example:

{"Department": "Finance"}


This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--from-json [text]

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.
