HP Integrity Virtual Machines Installation, Configuration, and Administration

can omit the entire hardware address. If you do not specify the virtual network device

hardware address, or a portion of it, the missing information will be generated

automatically. If you specify only a portion of the virtual network device hardware

address (for example, just the MAC address), you must include the commas (for example

,,aa-bb-cc-00-11-22).

The virtual switch information consists of the following fields, separated by a colon:

• vswitch

• vswitch-name (the name assigned to the virtual network switch)

• portnumber (the number of the port on the vswitch)

The following example shows how to associate a guest virtual network device with a vswitch:

network:lan:0,1,02-02-03-04-05-06:vswitch:net1

• The guest virtual network device type is network.

• The virtual adapter type is lan.

• The virtual PCI bus number is 0.

• The virtual PCI slot number is 1.

• The virtual MAC address is 02-02-03-04-05-06.

• The physical network device type is vswitch.

• The vswitch name is net1.
