After you generate a network label configuration file, you must verify its contents and edit it to specify the NIC and network label pairings to assign to the pool.
Prerequisites
- Generate a network label configuration file. See Obtain and Export NIC and Network Label Information.
- Become familiar with the network label configuration file format. See Network Label Configuration File Format.
Procedure
Edited Network Label Configuration File
In this example, network06 and network07 are assigned to nic1 (Network adapter 1) and network08 and network09 are assigned to nic2 (Network adapter 2). network01 through network05 remain commented and are not used. This configuration can support a pool of up to 488 virtual machines.

What to do next
Create a desktop pool that can use the multiple network labels. See Deploy a Desktop Pool That Uses Multiple Network Labels.
