Costomization Sepcifications ask for DNS Settings

You have multiple networks and one Customization Specification for all those networks.

when you select the Costomization fo a VM it asks me to set the Subnet, Gateway and IP-Adress, but its not possible to set a specific DNS for this VM.

Is there a way to do this ?

first of all thanks for your answer

If you have multiple networks lets say over 100 diffrent networks
You cannot set the similar DNS for all networks unless you create a customization for every single network segment.

for the IP, subnet & gateway you can force the user to set these settings when attahing a Customization specification - not so with DNS.

Hi,

Yes, you need to create a customization for each individual network segment.
