  ip ="reserved IP"
  nicuuid= "nicId"
}

• ip - (Required)[string] The reserved IP address to be used in the IP failover group.

• lan_id - (Required)[string] The ID of a LAN.

A note on multiple NICs on an IP Failover

If you want to add a secondary NIC to an IP Failover, follow these steps:

1. Creating NIC A with failover IP on LAN 1

2. Create NIC B unde the same LAN but with a different IP

3. Create the IP Failover on LAN 1 with NIC A and failover IP of NIC A (A becomes now "master", no slaves)

4. Update NIC B IP to be the failover IP ( B becomes now a slave, A remains master)

After this you can create a new NIC C, NIC D and so on, in LAN 1, directly with the failover IP.

Please check examples for a full example with the above steps.
