JSON configuration file format and valid values
The configuration file used for Just Go!, default-config-static.json, is part of the EVO:RAIL
distribution. As an alternative to Customize Me!, you can upload a json configuration file by using
Upload Configuration File in EVO:RAIL Configuration.
EVO:RAIL does not currently validate your json file. It must be properly formatted and the values must be
valid for EVO:RAIL. The following list contains the field restrictions:
• minIP, maxIP, netmask, gateway: valid IP addresses and netmask in your network
• vlanId: valid numeric VLAN ID, configured on your TOR switch
• name: alphanumeric string to identify a VM network segment
• prefix: alphanumeric string for the first part of an ESXi hostname
• separator: “”, “-“
• iterator: “NUMERIC_N”, “NUMERIC_NN”, “ALPHA”
• tld: valid TLD name in your network
• vcenter: alphanumeric string for the vCenter Server hostname
• passwords: Only text that has 5-20 characters and one of them must be a special character. No
character must be reused for more than three or more times.(Be aware that typing a password in text-
only format in a configuration file is not secure.)
• logging: “LOGINSIGHT”, “SYSLOG”
• timezone: “UTC”
• other fields: alphanumeric strings
The default configuration file that is a part of the EVO:RAIL distribution, default-config-
static.json
, is given here.
