Fabric administrators specify the ranges of IP addresses that can be used in network profiles. Each IP
address in the specified ranges allocated to a machine is reclaimed for reassignment when the machine
is destroyed and the ReclaimDestroyedStaticIPAddresses workflow runs.
A fabric administrator creates external network profiles and templates for NAT, private, and routed
network profiles on the Network Profiles page. A tenant administrator or business group manager creates
NAT, private, and routed network profiles in multi-machine blueprints for use in configuring network
adapters and load balancers for the multi-machine components.
Create an External Network Profile
A fabric administrator can create an external network profile to define external network properties and a
range of static IP addresses.
Prerequisites
Log in to the vRealize Automation console as a fabric administrator.
Procedure
1 Specify External Network Profile Information
The network profile information identifies the external network properties and specifies settings for
an existing network. An external network profile is a requirement of NAT and routed network profiles.
2 Configure External Network Profile IP Ranges
A fabric administrator can define zero (0) or more ranges of static IP addresses for use in
provisioning a network. An external network profile must have at least one static IP range for use
with routed and NAT network profiles.
Specify External Network Profile Information
The network profile information identifies the external network properties and specifies settings for an
existing network. An external network profile is a requirement of NAT and routed network profiles.
Prerequisites
n
Verify that you have a gateway IP address.
n
Log in to the vRealize Automation console as a fabric administrator.
Procedure
1 Select Infrastructure > Reservations > Network Profiles.
2 Select New Network Profile > External.
3 Enter a name and, optionally, a description.
4 Type a mask address in the Subnet mask text box.
For example, 255.255.0.0.
5 Type an IP address in the Gateway text box.
