vSphere v4.12.1 published on Tuesday, Oct 22, 2024 by Pulumi

    The vsphere.HostVirtualSwitch resource can be used to manage vSphere standard switches on an ESXi host. These switches can be used as a backing for standard port groups, which can be managed by the vsphere.HostPortGroup resource.

    For an overview on vSphere networking concepts, see this page.

    Example Usage

    Create HostVirtualSwitch Resource

    Resources are created with functions called constructors. To learn more about declaring and configuring resources, see Resources.

    HostVirtualSwitch Resource Properties

    To learn more about resource properties and how to use them, see Inputs and Outputs in the Architecture and Concepts docs.

    Inputs

    In Python, inputs that are objects can be passed either as argument classes or as dictionary literals.

    The HostVirtualSwitch resource accepts the following input properties:

    ActiveNics List<string>
    List of active network adapters used for load balancing.
    HostSystemId string
    The managed object ID of the host to set the virtual switch up on. Forces a new resource if changed.
    NetworkAdapters List<string>
    The list of network adapters to bind to this virtual switch.
    AllowForgedTransmits bool
    Controls whether or not the virtual network adapter is allowed to send network traffic with a different MAC address than that of its own.
    AllowMacChanges bool
    Controls whether or not the Media Access Control (MAC) address can be changed.
    AllowPromiscuous bool
    Enable promiscuous mode on the network. This flag indicates whether or not all traffic is seen on a given port.
    BeaconInterval int
    Determines how often, in seconds, a beacon should be sent to probe for the validity of a link.
    CheckBeacon bool
    Enable beacon probing. Requires that the vSwitch has been configured to use a beacon. If disabled, link status is used only.
    Failback bool
    If true, the teaming policy will re-activate failed interfaces higher in precedence when they come back up.
    LinkDiscoveryOperation string
    Whether to advertise or listen for link discovery. Valid values are advertise, both, listen, and none.
    LinkDiscoveryProtocol string
    The discovery protocol type. Valid values are cdp and lldp.

    Import

    An existing vSwitch can be imported into this resource by its ID.

    The convention of the id is a prefix, the host system managed objectID, and the virtual switch

    name. An example would be tf-HostVirtualSwitch:host-10:vSwitchTerraformTest.

    Import can the be done via the following command:

    $ pulumi import vsphere:index/hostVirtualSwitch:HostVirtualSwitch switch tf-HostVirtualSwitch:host-10:vSwitchTerraformTest
    

    The above would import the vSwitch named vSwitchTerraformTest that is located in the host-10

    vSphere host.
