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.vApp.IPAssignmentInfo.IpAllocationPolicy

IP allocation policy for a deployment. :contained by: vim.vApp.IPAssignmentInfo

type

vim.vApp.IPAssignmentInfo.IpAllocationPolicy

name

fixedAllocatedPolicy

values:

dhcpPolicy

Specifies that DHCP must be used to allocate IP addresses to the vApp

fixedPolicy

Specifies that IP addresses are configured manually when the vApp is deployed and will be kept until reconfigured or the vApp destroyed. This will ensure that a vApp gets a consistent IP for its life-time.

fixedAllocatedPolicy

Specifies that IP allocation is done through the range managed by the VI platform. The IP addresses are allocated at first power-on, and remain allocated at power-off. This will ensure that a vApp gets a consistent IP for its life-time.

transientPolicy

Specifies that IP allocation is done through the range managed by the vSphere platform. The IP addresses are allocated when needed, typically at power-on, and deallocated during power-off. There is no guarantee that a vApp will get the same IP address when restarted.
