To change the configuration of an existing VLAN, use the PATCH HTTP method directly on the endpoint’s
config container to send the modified parameter.
Add the following piece of code to your example:
# you add the vlan again
r = rest.post(url, data)
# you list the existing vlans after to check again
print("-"*42)
list_vlans(rest)
# you change the name
patch_url = url + "vlan=42" + "/config/"
info = {}
info["openconfig-vlan:config"] = {"name": "Zaphod"}
rest.patch(patch_url, info)
