Networking Workflows
With networking workflows you can add a port group to distributed virtual switch, create a distributed virtual
switch with a port group, and so on.
You access the networking workflows from Library > vCenter > Networking.
Add port group to
distributed virtual switch
Adds a new distributed virtual port group to a specified distributed virtual
switch.
Attach host system to
distributed virtual switch
Adds a host to a distributed virtual switch.
Create distributed virtual
switch with port group
Creates a new distributed virtual switch with a distributed virtual port group.
Distributed Virtual Port Group Workflows
With distributed virtual port group workflows you can update or delete a port group, and reconfigure the port
group.
You access the distributed virtual port group workflows from Library > vCenter > Networking > Distributed
virtual port group.
Connect virtual machine
NIC number to
distributed virtual port
group
Reconfigures the network connection of the specified virtual machine NIC
number to connect to the specified distributed virtual port group. If no NIC
number is specified, the number zero is used.
Delete distributed virtual
port group
Deletes a specified distributed virtual port group.
Set teaming options
Provides an interface to manage the teaming options for a distributed virtual
port group.
Update distributed
virtual port group
Updates the configuration of a specified distributed virtual port group.
Distributed Virtual Switch Workflows
With distributed virtual switch workflows, you can create, update or delete a distributed virtual switch, and
create, delete, or update a private VLAN.
You access the distributed virtual switch workflows from Library > vCenter > Networking > Distributed
virtual switch.
Create distributed virtual
switch
Creates a distributed virtual switch in the specified network folder with a name
and uplink port names that you specify. You must specify at least one uplink
port name.
Create private VLAN
Creates a VLAN on the specified distributed virtual switch.
Delete distributed virtual
switch
Deletes a distributed virtual switch and all port groups, uplink ports and so
on, that are associated with the switch.
Delete private VLAN
Deletes a VLAN from a specified distributed virtual switch. If a secondary
VLAN exists, you should first delete the secondary VLAN.
