Data Object Description

DataObject which provides a level of indirection when identifying VirtualNics during configuration. This dataObject lets users specify a VirtualNic in terms of the portgroup/Dv Port the Virtual NIC is connected to. This is useful in cases where VirtualNic will be created as part of a configuration operation and the created VirtualNic is referred to in some other part of configuration. e.g: for configuring VMotion
