Name	Description	Type	Notes
_create_time	Timestamp of resource creation	EpochMsTimestamp	Readonly Sortable
_create_user	ID of the user who created this resource	string	Readonly
_last_modified_time	Timestamp of last modification	EpochMsTimestamp	Readonly Sortable
_last_modified_user	ID of the user who last modified this resource	string	Readonly
_links	References related to this resource The server will populate this field when returing the resource. Ignored on PUT and POST.	array of ResourceLink	Readonly
_protection	Indicates protection status of this resource Protection status is one of the following: PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is not allowed to modify it. NOT_PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is allowed to modify it REQUIRE_OVERRIDE - the client who retrieved the entity is a super user and can modify it, but only when providing the request header X-Allow-Overwrite=true. UNKNOWN - the _protection field could not be determined for this entity.	string	Readonly
_revision	Generation of this resource config The _revision property describes the current revision of the resource. To prevent clients from overwriting each other's changes, PUT operations must include the current _revision of the resource, which clients should obtain by issuing a GET operation. If the _revision provided in a PUT request is missing or stale, the operation will be rejected.	int
_schema	Schema for this resource	string	Readonly
_self	Link to this resource	SelfResourceLink	Readonly
_system_owned	Indicates system owned resource	boolean	Readonly
description	Description of this resource	string	Maximum length: 1024 Sortable
display_name	Identifier to use when displaying entity in logs or GUI Defaults to ID if not set	string	Maximum length: 255 Sortable
edge_cluster_id	Edge cluster uuid Edge cluster uuid on which the referencing logical DHCP server runs.	string	Required
edge_cluster_member_indexes	Edge node indexes The Edge nodes on which the DHCP servers run. If none is provided, the NSX will auto-select two edge-nodes from the given edge cluster. If only one edge node is provided, the DHCP servers will run without HA support.	array of integer	Minimum items: 0 Maximum items: 2
enable_standby_relocation	Flag to enable standby DHCP server relocation Flag to enable the auto-relocation of standby DHCP Service in case of edge node failure. Only tier 1 and auto placed DHCP servers are considered for the relocation.	boolean	Default: "False"
id	Unique identifier of this resource	string	Sortable
resource_type	Must be set to the value DhcpProfile	string
tags	Opaque identifiers meaningful to the API user	array of Tag	Maximum items: 30

{ "display_name" : "DHCP-server-profile-2", "edge_cluster_id" : "4a6a13e0-eb66-4c02-96c3-85c9a250a946", "enable_standby_relocation" : true }
