Use same subnet of an outbound network on all deployments

In vRA 7.x it was possible to have a network profile that will create a on-demand network which has SNAT configured for every deployment. For every deployment it would use the same subnet which was a good thing for many use cases. E.g. when you have pre-configured systems that you just want to clone or assign the same IP to a specific system in every deployment of a blueprint.

In vRA 8.x this changed. We not have the "outbound" network profile which will also create a on-demand network with SNAT configured. But instead of using the same IP-range / subnet it will, for every deployment, create a network that does use a individual subnet out of the pre-defined CIDR pool of networks in the network profile.

Is there currently anything we could do to get the same behaviour as in vRA 7.x?

I don't think so, we bumped into the same issue. It's a limitation/feature that every network created in vrealize 8.x is unique.
