Ip Pool Manager Allocate Ipv6 Address

Allocates an IPv6 address from an IP pool.

Allocated IP addresses are reserved in the IP pool until released by calling ReleaseIpAllocation, or until the IP pool is configured to have an IP range that does not contain the IP address, or until the IP pool is destroyed.

The caller must be a vCenter extension. Refer to ExtensionManager for details on vCenter extensions.

The caller specifies a per extension unique allocation ID. Calling this function twice with the same allocation ID for the same pool yields the same IP address. This makes it possible to do idempotent allocations.
