EXAMPLE: #lkcli resource extend ip --tag <tag> --dest <backup node> --switchback <switchback type> --template_prioity <priority> --target_priority <prority> --ipaddr <IP address> --netmask <netmask> --device <network interface name>

Option Default Description
[--ipaddr <str>] Source system ipaddr. Virtual IP address on the extension destination node.

If the actual IP address is to be protected, specify ’0.0.0.0’.
[--netmask <str>] An appropriate value determined from ipaddr. Virtual IP netmask on the extension destination node.
