Update a node

Updates information about a node, a backend for this NodeBalancer's configured port.

🚧

You can configure UDP on the same NodeBalancer that also uses TCP, HTTP, or HTTPS, but only when managing it through the API. If UDP is configured and you make changes to the TCP, HTTP or HTTPS settings in Cloud Manager, the existing UDP configuration will be overwritten. This is because Cloud Manager doesn't currently support UDP.
