Data Object Description

This data object type is used to describe port groups. Port groups are used to group virtual network adapters on a virtual switch, associating them with networks and network policies.

Properties

Name	Type	Description
computedPolicy	HostNetworkPolicy	Computed network policies that are applicable for a port group. The inheritance scheme for PortGroup requires knowledge about the NetworkPolicy for a port group and its parent virtual switch as well as the logic for computing the results. This information is provided as a convenience so that callers need not duplicate the inheritance logic to determine the proper values for a network policy. See the description of the NetworkPolicy data object type for more information.
key*	xsd:string	The linkable identifier.
port*	HostPortGroupPort[]	The ports that currently exist and are used on this port group.
spec	HostPortGroupSpec	The specification of a port group.
vswitch*	xsd:string	The virtual switch that contains this port group.
