Property Description
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.Address
Specifies the IP address of network device N in a machine provisioned
with a static IP address.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN custom properties are specific to
individual blueprints and machines. When a machine is requested,
network and IP address allocation is performed before the machine is
assigned to a reservation. Because blueprints are not guaranteed to
be allocated to a specific reservation, do not use this property on a
reservation. This property is not supported for on-demand NAT or on-
demand routed networks.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.AdditionAddressM Defines additional M IP address allocated for an OpenStack instance
for network N, excluding the IP address set specified by the
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.Address. property. More addresses are
displayed on the Network tab in the Additional Addresses column.
This property is used by OpenStack machine state data collection.
While this property is only data-collected by the OpenStack endpoint,
it is not specific to OpenStack and can be used for lifecycle
extensibility by other endpoint types.
This property is not supported for on-demand NAT or on-demand
routed networks.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.AddressType
Specifies how IP address allocation is supplied to the network
provider, where NetworkN is the network number, starting with 0. The
following values are available:
n
DHCP
n
Static
n
MANUAL (available for vCloud Air and vCloud Director only)
The MANUAL value also requires that you specify an IP address.
This property is available for configuring vCloud Air, vCloud Director,
and vSphere machine components in the blueprint. Also see
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.Name. This property is not supported for
on-demand NAT or on-demand routed networks.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.MacAddressType
Indicates whether the MAC address of network device N is generated
or user-defined (static). This property is available for cloning.
The default value is generated. If the value is static, you must also use
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.MacAddress to specify the MAC
address.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN custom properties are specific to
individual blueprints and machines. When a machine is requested,
network and IP address allocation is performed before the machine is
assigned to a reservation. Because blueprints are not guaranteed to
be allocated to a specific reservation, do not use this property on a
reservation. This property is not supported for on-demand NAT or on-
demand routed networks.
