candidateVnic
Optional

List of VirtualNic objects that may be used for VMotion.

This will be a subset of the list of VirtualNics in HostNetworkInfo.vnic.

selectedVnic
Optional

The HostVirtualNic data object describes a virtual network adapter that connects to a virtual switch.

A host virtual NIC differs from a physical NIC:

  • A host virtual NIC is a virtual device that is connected to a virtual switch.
  • A physical NIC (pnic) corresponds to a physical device that is connected to the physical network.

A host virtual NIC provides access to the external network through a virtual switch that is bridged through a Physical NIC to a physical network.
