CustomizationIpGenerator

Required

Base type for the various IP specification possibilities.

string

subnetMask

Optional

Subnet mask for this virtual network adapter.

array of string

gateway

Optional

For a virtual network adapter with a static IP address, this data object type contains a list of gateways, in order of preference.

CustomizationIPSettingsIpV6AddressSpec

ipV6Spec

Optional

IPv6 settings

array of string

dnsServerList

Optional

A list of server IP addresses to use for DNS lookup in a Windows guest operating system.

In Windows, these settings are adapter-specific, whereas in Linux, they are global. As a result, the Linux guest customization process ignores this setting and looks for its DNS servers in the globalIPSettings object.

Specify these servers in order of preference. If this list is not empty, and if a DHCP IpGenerator is used, then these settings override the DHCP settings.

string

dnsDomain

Optional

A DNS domain suffix such as vmware.com.

string

primaryWINS

Optional

The IP address of the primary WINS server.

This property is ignored for Linux guest operating systems.

string

secondaryWINS

Optional
