Item Description
connection if the Multicast Filterset name has not been specified. If the
name is not specified, or is set to "None", then the Multicast Filter Set is left
unassigned and can be assigned later.
AddressType (optional)
The source of MAC address assignments to be used during the creation of
the new connection. If not specified, the default is the domain default. If
"User-Defined" or "Pool-Specified" is specified, both an Ethernet MAC
Address and iSCSI MAC Address must also be specified. Valid values
include "Factory-Default", "User-Defined" and "Pool-Specified".
To use the "Pool-Specified" option, the domain MAC pool must be defined
as VC-defined or user-defined and the listed addresses must be available
in the current pool.
EthernetMAC (required if
AddressType is User-
Defined
or Pool-Specified)
The user-defined Ethernet MAC address to use for the connection. This
property is required if the AddressType specified is "User-Defined" or
"Pool-Specified".
iScsiMAC (required if
AddressType is User-
Defined
or Pool-Specified)
The user-defined iSCSI MAC address to use for the connection. This
property is required if the AddressType specified is "User-Defined" or
"Pool-Specified".
SpeedType (optional)
The requested operational speed for the server port. Valid values include
"Auto", "Preferred", "Custom", and "Disabled". The default value is
"Preferred".
If the speed type is "Auto", the maximum port speed is determined by the
maximum configured speed for the network.
If the speed type is "Preferred", the speed of the network is the same as the
preferred speed of the network to which the connection is associated. If no
preferred speed is configured for a network, it defaults to "Auto".
If the speed type is "Custom", you can configure a speed from 100Mb to
MAX configured speed for the network in 100Mb increments.
If the speed type is "Disabled", bandwidth is not allocated and the server
port status is "Administratively Disabled".
Speed (required if the
SpeedType is Custom)
The user-defined speed for the server port. Valid values include 100Mb to
MAX configured speed for the network in 100Mb increments.
