Shawn Hartsock 15f7be9a52 pyVmomi reStructured Text Documentation
This external documentation for pyVmomi was generated using Googly Docs
(aka Google Standard Documentation) which renders very cleanly in
GitHub. Internal documentation for a class should be done in Sphinx
format because tools like pyCharm and Eclipse can use that documentation
as a hint for code completion.

Note: External docs as Googly Docs, internal docs as Sphinx.

Attributes:

ipAddress (str):

IPv4 address is 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.

prefixLength (int):

Denotes the length of a generic Internet network address prefix. The prefix length for IPv4 the value range is 0-32. For IPv6 prefixLength is a decimal value range 0-128. A value of n corresponds to an IP address mask that has n contiguous 1-bits from the most significant bit (MSB), with all other bits set to 0. A value of zero is valid only if the calling context defines it.

origin (str, optional):

How this address was configured. This can be one of the values from the enum IpAddressOrigin See IpAddressOrigin for values.

state (str, optional):

The state of this ipAddress. Can be one of IpAddressStatus.

lifetime (datetime, optional):

The time when will this address expire. Durning this time state may change states but is still visible from the network.
