IVMVirtualNetwork interface

The IVMVirtualNetwork interface defines a virtual network. IVMVirtualNetwork objects are returned from IVMVirtualServer methods IVMVirtualServer::CreateVirtualNetwork and IVMVirtualServer::FindVirtualNetwork. You can also retrieve an IVMVirtualNetwork object from the IVMVirtualNetworkCollection object returned from the IVMVirtualServer::VirtualNetworks property.

When to use

A virtual network consists of a virtual switch, which performs all internal routing, and several connections that are "plugged in" to the virtual switch. These connections can be a real external host connection, a virtual Ethernet NIC or a "virtual network server". Currently, the only "virtual network server" is the DHCP virtual network server.

Members

The IVMVirtualNetwork interface inherits from the IDispatch interface. IVMVirtualNetwork also has these types of members:
