Users create private networks from virtual datacenters, so from the infrastructure, an administrator can:

  1. View network use

  2. Create IP addresses

To display private networks:

  1. Go to Infrastructure → Datacenter → Network → Private.

On the left of the Private network screen, an expanding tree provides network information ordered hierarchically by enterprise and virtual datacenter.

...

Reserved private IPs are marked with a padlock symbol. The administrator can assign these IPs to VMs outside of the platform.

Note Notes about reserved private IPs for vCenter with DVS:

  • Prior to the first deploy of an Abiquo VM in an Abiquo private network, in order to add a reserved IP to a VM, you would need to create your own port group (tag/DVS) with the next tag in the rack sequence and the Abiquo naming convention, which is “network_name_tag”, for example, “private_network_11”. Creating your own port group is not recommended.

  • When a user deploys the first Abiquo VM in a private network, Abiquo checks for an existing network that uses the Abiquo naming convention, or creates a new one.

  • Abiquo will not manage private IPs added to VMs outside of the platform.

  • When a user undeploys the last Abiquo VM in a private network, if there are no other VMs with IP addresses in the network, Abiquo will delete the port group.
