Adding specifik roles to a group of users.

Hi all,

I want to create a role that only permits users to change the vlan on only one specifik VM. Is it posible to make a rule that is that specifik?

Kind Regards

Hi,


Make sure you assign the permission to the switch as-well .


Open: Home – Inventory – Networking and assign the permissions to the Network Label (Port group where the VM resides). After that, assign the role to individual VM were you want this to be applied. .

Please refer the below link .

Yes that permits users to change the vlan but on all VM's as it's on Datacenter lvl. I only want them to change on one specifik VM. If i try to add the same role on VM lvl it says "This host does not have any virtual machine networks, or you dont have the permission to access them"
