Network Profiles and BluePrints

We have a reservation using multiple networks/Port Groups. Each network has its own network profile. How do we set 2 different blueprints to use  a specific network profile? Currently with nothing set, the blueprints seem to round robin between the 2 network profiles in terms of which port group the VMs is actually placed on.

Hello atoerper,

According to the docs here Using Network Profiles to Control IP Address Ranges you should be able to add a network to the machine component on the blueprint or add a custom property:

You can assign a network profile to a vSphere machine component in a blueprint by adding an existing, on-demand NAT, or on-demand routed network component to the design canvas and selecting a network profile to which to connect the vSphere machine component. You can also assign network profiles to blueprints by using the custom property VirtualMachine.NetworkN.ProfileName, where N is the network identifier.
