Note that the stated IP above will not be used to set the address on the host itself.
In order to do so you should use either the 'setup networks' api on host's nics level.
(Alternately, you can send POST request to /hosts/{host:id}/nics which utilize the
former api (it is a bit simpler than using the setup networks api).

Should look like:
    Host host = api.getHosts().get("host_name");
    Action action = new Action();
    action.setCheckConnectivity(true); //required for rollback in case of configuration failure
    action.setHostNics(...); // should contain the target configuration
    host.getHostNics().setupnetworks(action);

where the action should contain the entire desired network configuration.

You can find various python-sdk example for setup networks on my blog [1]
I'll post few examples using the java sdk earlier next week.
