What to do next
You can assign a network profile to a network path in a reservation, or a tenant admin or business group
manager can specify the network profile in a blueprint.
Assign a Network Proļ¬le to a Reservation
Fabric administrators can assign a network profile to a reservation to enable static IP assignment to
machines provisioned on that reservation.
Network profiles can also be assigned to blueprints by using the custom property
VirtualMachine.NetworkN.ProfileName. If a network profile is specified in both the blueprint and the
reservation, the profile specified in the blueprint takes precedence.
