In Azure, before you create a virtual datacenter, create a resource group and optionally create an availability set. See Manage resource groups and Manage availability sets
In Google Cloud Platform, before you create a virtual datacenter, create a global network and create a subnet See Manage global networks and subnets

Select Create a new virtual datacenter from the pull-down menu
For the General information:
For the Location select the datacenter or public cloud region to use
For the Network select from:
Default: Create a network (default private or external) using platform configurationthe default network settings. If the default network is an external network, also create a default private network.
None: In private cloud only. Will do not create a private network
Custom Private: Create a custom private network (see details below)
If your environment uses NAT, you can select:
NAT network: to use for the default SNAT rule
Default NAT IP: for the default SNAT rule

Create a virtual datacenter with no network
In private cloud, when When you create a virtual datacenter, with None
selected for the Network, the platform does not create a default private network. But the platform will create the default virtual datacenter network for the
In private cloud, if the enterprise in the datacenter , if it is has another type of Default network, such as an external network, the platform will assign this network.
You can set the default network at Edit enterprise → Datacenters → edit datacenter → Default network.
If there is no network in the VDCvirtual datacenter, and the user tries to deploy a VM without a NIC, then the deploy will fail . To set the default network for the enterprise in a datacenter, edit the enterprise and go to Datacenters, and edit the datacenter, and go to Default network(because the platform cannot assign an IP address without a network).

Name | The name of the network to create |
Netmask | The network mask CIDR |
Network address | The network address |
Address range | The address space that the virtual datacenter can use in CIDR format. |
Gateway | The IP of the gateway of the network |
Availability zone | The availability zone where VMs attached to this network will deploy |
Primary DNS | The primary DNS of the network |
Secondary DNS | The secondary DNS of the VLANnetwork |
DNS suffix | The DNS suffix for the VLANnetwork |
To manage the VLANs or other networks of your virtual datacenter or to change its default network, go to Virtual datacenters → Network. See Manage networks.

After you create the virtual datacenter, you can edit it to change the default values.

If you are able to manage user roles, you can limit user access to a virtual datacenter for users that can have their virtual datacenters restricted (usually ordinary cloud users).
For example, you can give users read-only access.

Privileges: Manage roles, No VDC restriction |
To limit access to a VDC virtual datacenter for cloud users:
Go to myCloud → Virtual datacenters
Create, edit, or onboard a virtual datacenter
Go to Roles
For the Role, select a more restrictive role to replace user roles within this VDCvirtual datacenter.
For example, to give users read-only access, select theENTERPRISE_VIEWER

Set a default network for a virtual datacenter
Each virtual datacenter requires a default network. The By default, the platform automatically creates a default private network for each virtual datacenter.
You . If you deploy a VM without assigning a NIC, the platform will add one from the default network.
After you create a virtual datacenter, you can configure the default network to be a private network, an external network, or a public network.
You can also pre-configure a default network for each enterprise in a datacenter .
If you deploy a VM without assigning a NIC, the platform will add one from the default network.to use in all their virtual datacenters.
To set a network as the default, you will require privileges to access this network in the virtual infrastructure.

Select the Default network network checkbox
This default will override the platform default network and the network set for the enterprise in the datacenter
The new default network will apply to all VMs deployed after you set it
For a public network that is the virtual datacenter default, obtain IP addresses for your VMs before you deploy
For an external network that is the virtual datacenter default, your administrator must create IP addresses in infrastructure for your VMs before you deploy
