Public VCF as-a-Service - Linking a public IP block with vRack

Objective

When you order a new Public VCF as-a-Service organization, a vRack and a block of public IP addresses are delivered to you.

This IP block is not directly linked to your vRack. You will need to link it manually.

Find out how to link the block of public IP addresses delivered with your Public VCF as-a-Service organization and its vRack.

Requirements

• A Public VCF as-a-Service on OVHcloud solution.
• Being the technical administrator of the managed VMware vSphere on OVHcloud infrastructure.
• Access to the OVHcloud Control Panel

Instructions

1. Log in to your OVHcloud Control Panel.

2. Click Hosted Private Cloud, then click the Public VCF as-a-Service menu, and select your organization.

   

3. From the General information tab, the vRack attached to your organization will appear with an ID in the form pn-xxxxxxx.

   

4. Expand the Network menu in the left-hand column and select your vRack pn-xxxxxxx.

   

5. Select the IP block to link to your vRack/organization and click Add.

   

6. The public IP block is now linked to your vRack.

   To make these addresses usable inside your Public VCF as-a-Service environment, you also need to declare the public gateway in VMware Cloud Director (VCD).

   Follow the guide Public VCF as-a-Service - Declare the public IP gateway in VCD to complete this step.
