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.

vim.host.VirtualSwitch.Specification

This data object type describes the VirtualSwitch specification representing the properties on a VirtualSwitch that can be configured once the object exists.

extends

vmodl.DynamicData

Attributes:

numPorts (int):

The number of ports that this virtual switch is configured to use. Changing this setting does not take effect until the next reboot. The maximum value is 1024, although other constraints, such as memory limits, may establish a lower effective limit.

bridge (vim.host.VirtualSwitch.Bridge, optional):

The bridge specification describes how physical network adapters can be bridged to a virtual switch.

policy (vim.host.NetworkPolicy, optional):

The virtual switch policy specification. This has a lower precedence than PortGroup. If the policy property is not set and you are creating a virtual switch, then a default policy property setting is used. If the policy property is not set and you are updating a virtual switch, then the policy will be unchanged.

mtu (int, optional):

The maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the virtual switch in bytes.
