Remove IPv4 addresses from a server interface

Since 7.1.0
DELETE/servers/{serverId}/interfaces/{interfaceRef}/ipv4

Return the listed addresses (ids or addresses) to their blocks. The remaining addresses are renumbered and the primary address moves if it was removed.

#
application/json

Too many requests. Either the token's requests per minute are used up (see the X-RateLimit-* headers) or the calling address has failed authentication 10 times in a minute (the body then includes retry_after_seconds). Retry-After gives the seconds to wait.

object
errorsarray[string]#
retry_after_secondsinteger#

Seconds to wait before retrying. Present on the failed-authentication limit only.

Response headers
Retry-Afterinteger

Seconds to wait before retrying.

X-RateLimit-Limitinteger

The token's requests per minute (token limit only).

X-RateLimit-Remaininginteger

Requests left in the current minute (token limit only).

X-RateLimit-Resetinteger

Unix timestamp at which the minute resets (token limit only).
