HostNetworkConfig
This data object type describes networking host configuration data objects.
These objects contain only the configuration information for networking. The runtime information is available from the NetworkInfo data object type.

}Physical network adapters as seen by the primary operating system.
Virtual network adapters configured for use by the host operating system network adapter.
Virtual network adapters configured for use by the Service Console.
This data object type describes the DNS configuration.
All IPv4 addresses, subnet addresses, and netmasks are specified using dotted decimal notation. For example, "192.0.2.1". IPv6 addresses are 128-bit addresses represented as eight fields of up to four hexadecimal digits. A colon separates each field (:). For example, 2001:DB8:101::230:6eff:fe04:d9ff. The address can also consist of the symbol '::' to represent multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous 0's only once in an address as described in RFC 2373.
IP Route Configuration.
All IPv4 addresses, subnet addresses, and netmasks are specified as strings using dotted decimal notation. For example, "192.0.2.1". IPv6 addresses are 128-bit addresses represented as eight fields of up to four hexadecimal digits. A colon separates each field (:). For example, 2001:DB8:101::230:6eff:fe04:d9ff. The address can also consist of symbol '::' to represent multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous 0's only once in an address as described in RFC 2373.

IpRouteEntry.
Routing entries are individual static routes which combined with the default route form all of the routing rules for a host.
Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) Service instances configured on the host.
Network address translation (NAT) Service instances configured on the host.
Enable or disable IPv6 protocol on this system.
This property must be set by itself, no other property can accompany this change. Following the successful change, the system should be rebooted to have the change take effect.
