IpAllocationParams (vSphere Automation SDK for Java 7.0.0.1)

java.lang.Object
- com.vmware.vcenter.ovf.IpAllocationParams

All Implemented Interfaces:

StaticStructure, Structure, java.io.Serializable
```
public final class IpAllocationParams
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable, StaticStructure
```
The IpAllocationParams class specifies how IP addresses are allocated to OVF properties. In particular, it informs the deployment platform whether the guest supports IPv4, IPv6, or both. It also specifies whether the IP addresses can be obtained through DHCP or through the properties provided in the OVF environment.
Ovf Property elements are exposed to the guest software through the OVF environment. Each Property element exposed in the OVF environment shall be constructed from the value of the ovf:key attribute. A Property element contains a key/value pair, it may optionally specify type qualifiers using the ovf:qualifiers attribute with multiple qualifiers separated by commas.

The settings in IpAllocationParams class are global to a deployment. Thus, if a virtual machine is part of a virtual appliance, then its settings are ignored and the settings for the virtual appliance is used.

This information is based on the vmw:IpAssignmentSection in OVF package.

See LibraryItem.deploy(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, com.vmware.vcenter.ovf.LibraryItemTypes.DeploymentTarget, com.vmware.vcenter.ovf.LibraryItemTypes.ResourcePoolDeploymentSpec) and LibraryItem.filter(java.lang.String, com.vmware.vcenter.ovf.LibraryItemTypes.DeploymentTarget).

    More precisely, for each union: given value of the discriminant/tag field (@UnionTag in the IDL) of an union in this structure, validates that:
  - all fields of the union required for that value of the discriminant are set
  - fields of the union that are not allowed for that value of the discriminant are not set
  - any other fields of the structure (not participating in the union) do not affect the validation result
