Modify or Remove vApp Networks

Based on the type of the vApp network, you can configure various network settings, such as DNS, static IP pools, and firewalls. If you no longer need a vApp network, you can remove it.

Prerequisites

Verify that you are connected to a VMware Cloud Director server.

Procedure

1. Retrieve the vApp for which you want to modify vApp networks.

   $myVApp = Get-CIVApp -Name 'MyVApp'

2. Modify the settings for DNS and static IP pool for the vApp network named MyVAppNetwork.

   Get-CIVAppNetwork -VApp $myVApp -Name 'MyVAppNetwork' | Set-CIVAppNetwork -PrimaryDns 10.17.0.94 -SecondaryDns 10.17.0.95 -DnsSuffix 'my.domain.com' -StaticIPPool "10.151.168.1 - 10.151.169.240"

3. (Optional) Remove MyVAppNetwork.

   $myVApp | Get-CIVAppNetwork -Name 'MyVAppNetwork' | Remove-CIVAppNetwork

4. (Optional) Remove all isolated vApp networks for the vApp named MyVapp.

   $myVApp | Get-CIVAppNetwork -ConnectionType Isolated | Remove-CIVAppNetwork

5. Retrieve the organization vDC network named MyOrgVdcNetwork1.

   $myOrgVdcNetwork1 = Get-OrgVdcNetwork -Name 'MyOrgVdcNetwork1'

6. Retrieve the organization vDC network named MyOrgVdcNetwork2.

   $myOrVdcgNetwork2 = Get-OrgVdcNetwork -Name 'MyOrgVdcNetwork2'

7. Redirect all vApp networks that connect to MyOrgVdcNetwork1 to connect to MyOrgVdcNetwork2.

   Get-CIVAppNetwork -ParentOrgVdcNetwork $myOrgVdcNetwork1 | Set-CIVAppNetwork -ParentOrgVdcNetwork $myOrgVdcNetwork2 -NatEnabled $false -FirewallEnabled $false

   The operation deactivates the firewall and NAT routing for all vApp networks that are connected to MyOrgVdcNetwork1.
