How can I Get NetworkName from VLAN ID

[jmadriaga07]

I would like to be able to set NetworkName in the NetworkAdapter, but obtaining this data from the "VLAN ID". In the script you should enter the "VLAN ID" set the NetworkName in the NetworkAdapter. I already have everything set up, but I only need the part to get the NetworkName from the "VLAN ID".

You mean like this?

$vlanId = '20'

Get-VirtualPortGroup | where{$_.VlanId -eq $vlanId} | select -ExpandProperty Name

I tried several vlanID's and it doesn't bring me data

Are you using VSS or VDS?

[LucD · Accepted solution]

In any case, the following will find the networkname of the PG with corresponding VlanId.
And it works for VSS and VDS.

$tgtVlanId = '20'

Get-VirtualPortGroup -PipelineVariable pg |

ForEach-Object -Process {

    $vlanId = if($pg -is [VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Types.V1.Host.Networking.DistributedPortGroup]){

         if($pg.ExtensionData.Config.DefaultPortConfig.Vlan -is [VMware.Vim.VmwareDistributedVirtualSwitchPvlanSpec]){

                            $pg.ExtensionData.Config.DefaultPortConfig.Vlan.PvlanId

                        }

         elseif($pg.ExtensionData.Config.DefaultPortConfig.Vlan -is [VMware.Vim.VmwareDistributedVirtualSwitchVlanSpec]){

                            if($pg.ExtensionData.Config.DefaultPortConfig.Vlan.VlanId -is [VMware.Vim.NumericRange[]]){

                                [string]::Join(',',($_.ExtensionData.Config.DefaultPortConfig.Vlan.VlanId | %{"$($_.Start)-$($_.End)"}))

                            }

                            else{

                                $pg.ExtensionData.Config.DefaultPortConfig.Vlan.VlanId

                            }

                        }

     }

     else{$pg.VlanId}

     if($vlanId -eq $tgtVlanId){

        $pg.Name

     }

}
