Overview

This node updates a MAC address record by sending an update request with specified parameters. It is useful in scenarios where you need to modify existing MAC address information in a system, such as updating device details or correcting MAC address data. For example, network administrators can use this node to programmatically update MAC address entries in their asset management or network monitoring systems.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique identifier of the MAC address record to update.
Mac Address JSON object containing the parameters for updating the MAC address record.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the updated MAC address record or the response from the API after the update operation. This typically includes the updated fields and status information confirming the success or failure of the update.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authentication with the external service.
  • Connects to the AvantGuard DNSFilter API endpoint (https://api.dnsfilter.com).
  • Uses HTTP headers Accept: application/json and Content-Type: application/json.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:
    • Invalid or missing MAC address ID may cause the update to fail.
    • Malformed JSON in the "Mac Address" property can lead to parsing errors.
    • Authentication failures if the API key credential is not configured correctly.
  • Error messages:
    • Errors related to invalid input data usually indicate that required fields are missing or incorrectly formatted.
    • Authorization errors suggest checking the API key credential setup.
  • Resolutions:
    • Ensure the "Id" property is set to a valid existing MAC address record ID.
    • Validate the JSON structure provided in the "Mac Address" property before execution.
    • Verify that the API key credential is properly configured and has necessary permissions.
