Attributes:

Name	Type	Description
Required
name	string	The ID(Name) of the NSX IP pool. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented. When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must be an identifier for the resource type: `com.vmware.nsx.pools.ip_pool`. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will be an identifier for the resource type: `com.vmware.nsx.pools.ip_pool`.
cidr.address	string	The IPv4 address. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented.
cidr.prefix	long	The prefix length in the IPv4 CIDR notation. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented.
ip_range.starting_address	string	The IPv4 address denoting the start of the range. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented.
ip_range.size_specifier	string	The size specification used for the range. This field must be set to ENDING_ADDRESS. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented. Defines the ways to specify the ending address in an IPv4 address range. Warning: This enumeration is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented. Value is one of: ENDING_ADDRESS: The end address of the IPv4 address range is specified by providing the IPv4 end address. Warning: This constant is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented. ADDRESS_COUNT: The end address of the IPv4 address range is derived from the specified starting address and address count. This option is for future use. It is not supported yet. Warning: This constant is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented.
ip_range.subnet_mask	string	The subnet mask to be set. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented.
gateway	string	The IPv4 address of the gateway associated with the NSX IP pool. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented.
Optional
cidr	ipv4_cidr	The CIDR string denoting the range of IP addresses and the prefix length. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented. Optional. To be unset when vcenter.nsx.ip_pool_create_spec.ip_range is set. If vcenter.nsx.ip_pool_create_spec.cidr and vcenter.nsx.ip_pool_create_spec.ip_range are both set, then InvalidArgument error is thrown.
ip_range	ipv4_range	The IPv4 address range. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented. Optional. To be unset when vcenter.nsx.ip_pool_create_spec.cidr is set. If vcenter.nsx.ip_pool_create_spec.cidr and vcenter.nsx.ip_pool_create_spec.ip_range are both set, then InvalidArgument error is thrown.
ip_range.ending_address	string	The IPv4 address denoting the end of the range. The range includes the vcenter.nsx.ipv4_range.ending_address. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented. Optional. It is only relevant when size_specifier has value ENDING_ADDRESS. This field is optional and it is only relevant when the value of `size_specifier` is ENDING_ADDRESS.
ip_range.address_count	long	A positive number denoting the number of IP addresses in the range. Addresses are derived by incrementing vcenter.nsx.ipv4_range.starting_address. This field is for future use. It is not supported yet. Warning: This attribute is part of a new feature in development. It may be changed at any time and may not have all supported functionality implemented. Optional. It is only relevant when size_specifier has value ADDRESS_COUNT. This field is optional and it is only relevant when the value of `size_specifier` is ADDRESS_COUNT.
