string

name

Required

vSphere Distributed Switch name

boolean

isUsedByNsxt

Optional

Boolean to identify if the vSphere distributed switch is used by NSX. This property is deprecated in favor of nsxtSwitchConfig field

NsxtSwitchConfig

nsxtSwitchConfig

Optional

This specification contains the configurations to be associated with the vSphere Distributed Switch managed by NSX

array of PortgroupSpec

portGroupSpecs

Optional

List of portgroups to be associated with the vSphere Distributed Switch

array of NiocBandwidthAllocationSpec

niocBandwidthAllocationSpecs

Optional

List of Network I/O Control Bandwidth Allocations for System Traffic Based on shares, reservation, and limit, you can configure Network I/O Control to allocate certain amount of bandwidth for traffic generated by vSphere Fault Tolerance, iSCSI storage, vSphere vMotion, and so on. You can use Network I/O Control on a distributed switch to configure bandwidth allocation for the traffic that is related to the main system features in vSphere

integer As int32 As int32

mtu

Optional
