Properties

Name Type Description
directionxsd:string

The direction of the connection. For possible values see VirtualDeviceURIBackingOptionDirection
proxyURI*xsd:string

Identifies a proxy service that provides network access to the serviceURI. If you specify a proxy URI, the virtual machine initiates a connection with the proxy service and forwards the serviceURI and direction to the proxy.
serviceURIxsd:string

Identifies the local host or a system on the network, depending on the value of direction.
  • If you use the virtual machine as a server, the URI identifies the host on which the virtual machine runs. In this case, the host name part of the URI should be empty, or it should specify the address of the local host.
  • If you use the virtual machine as a client, the URI identifies the remote system on the network.
