Detailed Description

This cmdlet creates a new vApp network.
* To create a direct vApp network, specify the Direct parameter.
* To create a routed vApp network, specify the Routed parameter.
* To create an isolated vApp network, specify the Routed parameter but do not specify the ParentOrgNetwork parameter.

Parameters

Name | Type | Description | Required? | Pipeline Input | Default Value
--- | --- | --- | --- | --- | ---
Confirm | SwitchParameter | If the value is $true, indicates that the cmdlet asks for confirmation before running. If the value is $false, the cmdlet runs without asking for user confirmation. | false | false
Description | String | Specifies a description for the vApp network that you want to create. | false | false
Direct | SwitchParameter | Indicates that you want to create a vApp network that is directly connected to a parent organization network. When the Direct parameter is specified, you cannot specify the Routed parameter. | true | false
DisableFirewall | SwitchParameter | Indicates that you want to create a vApp network with a disabled firewall service. By default, when the Routed parameter is specified, the vApp network is created with an enabled firewall service. | false | false
DnsSuffix | String | Specifies a DNS suffix for the vApp network that you want to create. | false | false
Gateway | IPAddress | Specifies the default gateway for the vApp network that you want to create. | true | false
InformationAction | ActionPreference |  | false | false
InformationVariable | String |  | false | false
Name | String | Specifies a name for the vApp network that you want to create. | true | false
Netmask | IPAddress | Specifies a network mask for the vApp network that you want to create. | true | false
ParentOrgVdcNetwork | OrgNetworkBase | Specifies the parent organization vDC network to which the vApp network connects. Do not specify this parameter if you want to create an isolated vApp network. | true | false
PipelineVariable | String |  | false | false
PrimaryDns | IPAddress | Specifies a primary DNS for the vApp network that you want to create. | false | false
Routed | SwitchParameter | Indicates that you want to create a routed network. To create an isolated network, specify the Routed parameter but do not specify the ParentOrgParameter. When the Routed parameter is specified, you cannot specify the Direct parameter. | true | false
RunAsync | SwitchParameter | Indicates that the command returns immediately without waiting for the task to complete. In this mode, the output of the cmdlet is a Task object. For more information about the RunAsync parameter run "help About_RunAsync" in the VMware PowerCLI console. | false | false
SecondaryDns | IPAddress | Specifies a secondary DNS for the vApp network you want to create. | false | false
Server | CIServer[] | Specifies the cloud servers on which you want to run the cmdlet. If no value is given to this parameter, the command runs on the default servers. For more information about default servers, see the description of Connect-CIServer. | false | false
StaticIPPool | IPRangeList | Specifies a range of static IP addresses for the vApp network to allocate to virtual machines. For example, "192.168.10.0 - 192.168.10.50, 192.168.10.100 - 192.168.10.150". | false | false
VApp | CIVApp | Specifies the vApp for which you want to create a vApp network. | true | true (ByValue)
WhatIf | SwitchParameter | Indicates that the cmdlet is run only to display the changes that would be made and actually no objects are modified. | false | false

Return Type

The newly created CIVAppNetwork object

Notes

Examples

-------------- Example 1 --------------

    $myVApp = Get-CIVApp -Name 'MyVApp'
    $parentOrgNetwork = Get-OrgNetwork -Name 'MyParentOrganizationNetwork'
    New-CIVAppNetwork -ParentOrgNetwork $parentOrgNetwork -VApp $myVApp -Routed -Description 'This is my routed network.' -DnsSuffix 'mydomain.com' -Gateway '192.168.3.3' -Name 'MyRoutedNetwork' -Netmask '255.255.255.0' -PrimaryDns '192.168.3.1' -SecondaryDns '192.168.3.2' -StaticIPPool '192.168.3.100 - 92.168.3.120'

Creates a new routed vApp network with the specified configuration.

-------------- Example 2 --------------

    $myVApp = Get-CIVApp -Name 'MyVApp'
    New-CIVAppNetwork -ParentOrgNetwork $null -VApp $myVApp -Routed -Description 'This is my isolated network.' -DnsSuffix 'mydomain.com' -Gateway '192.168.3.3' -Name 'MyIsolatedNetwork' -Netmask '255.255.255.0' -PrimaryDns '192.168.3.1' -SecondaryDns '192.168.3.2' -StaticIPPool '192.168.3.100 - 192.168.3.120'

Createsa new isolated vApp network with the specified configuration.

-------------- Example 3 --------------

    $myVApp = Get-CIVApp -Name 'MyVApp'
    $parentOrgNetwork = Get-OrgNetwork -Name 'MyParentOrganizationNetwork'
    New-CIVAppNetwork -ParentOrgNetwork $parentOrgNetwork -VApp $myVApp ?Direct

Creates a new direct vApp network.
