/AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANS

The initial VLAN subnets for the environment. Amazon EVS VLAN subnets have a minimum CIDR block size of /28 and a maximum size of /24. Amazon EVS VLAN subnet CIDR blocks must not overlap with other subnets in the VPC.

CONSTRUCTOR

IMPORTING

Required arguments:

io_vmkmanagement TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO

The host VMkernel management VLAN subnet. This VLAN subnet carries traffic for managing ESXi hosts and communicating with VMware vCenter Server.

io_vmmanagement TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO

The VM management VLAN subnet. This VLAN subnet carries traffic for vSphere virtual machines.

io_vmotion TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO

The vMotion VLAN subnet. This VLAN subnet carries traffic for vSphere vMotion.

io_vsan TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO

The vSAN VLAN subnet. This VLAN subnet carries the communication between ESXi hosts to implement a vSAN shared storage pool.

io_vtep TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO

The VTEP VLAN subnet. This VLAN subnet handles internal network traffic between virtual machines within a VCF instance.

io_edgevtep TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO

The edge VTEP VLAN subnet. This VLAN subnet manages traffic flowing between the internal network and external networks, including internet access and other site connections.

The NSX uplink VLAN subnet. This VLAN subnet allows connectivity to the NSX overlay network.

io_hcx TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO

The HCX VLAN subnet. This VLAN subnet allows the HCX Interconnnect (IX) and HCX Network Extension (NE) to reach their peers and enable HCX Service Mesh creation.

If you plan to use a public HCX VLAN subnet, the following requirements must be met:

  • Must have a /28 netmask and be allocated from the IPAM public pool. Required for HCX internet access configuration.

  • The HCX public VLAN CIDR block must be added to the VPC as a secondary CIDR block.

  • Must have at least three Elastic IP addresses to be allocated from the public IPAM pool for HCX components.

io_expansionvlan1 TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO

An additional VLAN subnet that can be used to extend VCF capabilities once configured. For example, you can configure an expansion VLAN subnet to use NSX Federation for centralized management and synchronization of multiple NSX deployments across different locations.

io_expansionvlan2 TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO /AWS1/CL_EVSINITIALVLANINFO

An additional VLAN subnet that can be used to extend VCF capabilities once configured. For example, you can configure an expansion VLAN subnet to use NSX Federation for centralized management and synchronization of multiple NSX deployments across different locations.

Optional arguments:

iv_ishcxpublic TYPE /AWS1/EVSBOOLEAN /AWS1/EVSBOOLEAN

Determines if the HCX VLAN that Amazon EVS provisions is public or private.

iv_hcxnetworkaclid TYPE /AWS1/EVSNETWORKACLID /AWS1/EVSNETWORKACLID

A unique ID for a network access control list that the HCX VLAN uses. Required when isHcxPublic is set to true.
