Network sets

You can define a collection of Ethernet data center networks to be identified by a single name,
called a

network set

. You can specify a network set instead of an individual network when you

define a

connection

from a server to the data center networks. By using network sets, you can

make changes to networks that are members of a network set without having to make changes to
each server profile that uses that network set.

Network sets are useful in virtual machine environments where each server profile connection must
access multiple networks. For example, you can configure a hypervisor with a vSwitch to access
multiple network VLAN IDs by creating a network set as a trunk that includes the networks that
have these VLAN IDs.
