Firewall Create
POST
https://api.linode.com/v4/networking/firewalls
Creates a Firewall to filter network traffic.
Use the rules property to create inbound and outbound access rules.
Use the devices property to assign the Firewall to a service and apply its Rules to the device. Requires read_writeUser’s Grants to the device.
Currently, Firewalls can only be assigned to Linode instances.
A Firewall can be assigned to multiple Linode instances at a time.
A Linode instance can have one active, assigned Firewall at a time.
Additional disabled Firewalls can be assigned to a service, but they cannot be enabled if another active Firewall is already assigned to the same service.
A firewall_create Event is generated when this endpoint returns successfully.

The inbound and outbound access rules to apply to the Firewall.
A Firewall may have up to 25 rules across its inbound and outbound rulesets.

IPv6 Range Create
POST

Creates an IPv6 Range and assigns it based on the provided Linode or route target IPv6 SLAAC address. See the ipv6 property when accessing the Linode View (
GET /linode/instances/{linodeId}) endpoint to view a Linode’s IPv6 SLAAC address.
Either linode_id or route_target is required in a request.
linode_id and route_target are mutually exclusive. Submitting values for both properties in a request results in an error.
Upon a successful request, an IPv6 range is created in the
Region that corresponds to the provided linode_id or route_target.
Your Linode is responsible for routing individual addresses in the range, or handling traffic for all the addresses in the range.
Access the IP Addresses Assign (
POST /networking/ips/assign) endpoint to re-assign IPv6 Ranges to your Linodes.
Note: The following restrictions apply:
A Linode can only have one IPv6 range targeting its SLAAC address.
An account can only have one IPv6 range in each
Region.
Removes this IPv6 range from your account and disconnects the range from any assigned Linodes.

a mechanism for secure communication between two or more Linodes that are assigned to the
same VLAN and are both within the same Layer 2 broadcast domain.
VLANs are created and attached to Linodes by using the interfaces property for the following endpoints:
Note: Only Next Generation Network (NGN) data centers support VLANs. Use the Regions (
/regions) endpoint to view the capabilities of data center regions.
If a VLAN is attached to your Linode and you attempt to migrate or clone it to a non-NGN data center,
the migration or cloning will not initiate. If a Linode cannot be migrated because of an incompatibility,
you will be prompted to select a different data center or contact support.
Note: See the
VLANs Overview to view additional specifications and limitations.
