Property Description
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.MacAddress
Specifies the MAC address of a network device
N. This property is available for cloning.
If the value of
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.MacAddressType
is generated, this property contains the
generated address.
If the value of
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.MacAddressType
is static, this property specifies the MAC address.
For virtual machines provisioned on ESX server
hosts, the address must be in the range specified
by VMware. For details, see vSphere
documentation.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN custom properties
are designed to be 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.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.Name
Specifies the name of the network to connect to,
for example the network device N to which a
machine is attached. This is equivalent to a
network interface card (NIC).
By default, a network is assigned from the
network paths available on the reservation on
which the machine is provisioned. Also see
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.AddressType.
You can ensure that a network device is
connected to a specific network by setting the
value of this property to the name of a network on
an available reservation. For example, If you give
properties for N= 0 and 1, you get 2 NICs and
their assigned value, provided the network is
selected in the associated reservation.
VirtualMachine.NetworkN custom properties
are designed to be specific to 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.
You can add this property to a vCloud Air or
vCloud Director machine component in a
blueprint.
