Hi,
We are testing Lab Manager 4.0 for our group to manage number of VM templates for deployment.
The network configuration in our organization is such that every machine has to be registered with a unique MAC address. As a result, I have a block of 10 IP addresses for 10 (virtual) MAC addresses. I can use them individually to deploy VM and the networking is working perfectly fine.
Now is the next step to use the VM templates. Before doing that, I defined networking template to list these 10 IP addresses as IP pool. Then I imported a VM as a template, and selected that Network with "IP Address Mode" as Static IP Pool. But the problem is that i am unable to define a pattern in the MAC address. In the template option, it only shows the current MAC address and as result (I believe) if I deploy a VM using this template; then only first VM will have a network connectivity but not the other ones.
Is there a way to resolve this configuration issue or a better way to use IP pool in a different configuration?
Thanks, Omer
