You can try like this:
neutron lb-vip-update 748b4c56-7a3b-41d4-b591-ecd9014730ed --session_persistence type=dict type="HTTP_COOKIE", [cookie_name="test"]

ref lb-vip-update in:

[Dongcan Ye (hellochosen)]

Sorry, command is:
neutron lb-vip-update 748b4c56-7a3b-41d4-b591-ecd9014730ed --session_persistence type=dict type="HTTP_COOKIE"

[hgangwx (hgangwx)]

thanks, it works now.

[hgangwx (hgangwx)]

why we can't find this parameter in cli, can we add it?

[hgangwx (hgangwx)]

HTTP_COOKIE and SOURCE_IP can be enabled using your method, but APP_COOKIE still not be updated.

doug, sent to you to have some eyes on it, I think it's on the category of low or wishlist, and any patches from the requesters could be welcome.

[Dongcan Ye (hellochosen)]

when using APP_COOKIE, you should specify cookie_name.

neutron lb-vip-update 748b4c56-7a3b-41d4-b591-ecd9014730ed --session_persistence type=dict type="APP_COOKIE", [cookie_name="test"]

thanks a lot

[hgangwx (hgangwx)]

we can find the command from cli reference guide,but can't find it in CLI.

https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Neutron/LBaaS/CLI#lb-vip-update

lb-vip-create --subnet-id <subnet-id> --protocol <protocol> --protocol-port <tcp port> --name <name> [--address <address>] [--admin-state-down] [--connection-limit <connection limit>] [--description <description>] [--tenant-id <tenant id>] <pool-id> [--session-persistence type=dict type=<type>,[cookie_name=<name>]]

[Bo Chi (bochi-michael)]

I see all of neutron lb-**-update commands don't have help info, so we should add all of them?

[Bo Chi (bochi-michael)]

There's a bug for the similar issue for lbaasv2: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-neutronclient/+bug/1515111
