(Optional) Add IP Pools to the Omnissa Access Virtual Appliance

Network configuration with IP Pools is optional in Omnissa Access. You can manually add IP pools to the Omnissa Access virtual appliance after the appliance is installed.

IP Pools act like DHCP servers to assign IP addresses from the pool to the Omnissa Access virtual appliance. To use IP Pools, you edit the virtual appliance networking properties to change the properties to dynamic properties and configure the netmask, gateway, and DNS settings.

   2. In the Edit property dialog box, select Type and then select Dynamic Property.

   3. Select the appropriate value from the drop down menu for Netmask, Gateway Address, and DNS Servers respectively.
