NOTE:
Network access groups can be changed while creating or editing a server profile.
The connections using networks that do not belong to the newly selected network access group
are set back to unassigned.
A network access group associates a server profile with a subset of networks in the VC Domain
and ensures that the server profile is not connected to networks outside the subset. If a network
access group option is not selected, the Default option is used.
All networks are part of the default network access group. You can create other network access
groups through VCM and decide which networks will be associated with each network access
group.
NOTE:
The VC Domain Group must have firmware version 3.3x or later to use network
access groups. See
for firmware information.

are optional, however if you do not select a network name, the blade server NICs are not
able to access connectivity. You can select multiple networks using Ethernet network
connections. To add more connections, click Add Network Connection. To remove a connection,
click the X icon at the right side of the table.
