## Detailed Description This cmdlet modifies a selected VMware or a Hyper-V network extension appliance on the user cloud host. ::: important To modify settings of a network extension appliance, you must save the result of the `Set-VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance` cmdlet to a variable. Otherwise, the settings of the appliance will remain unchanged. ::: ::: note To modify settings, specify new values for the necessary parameters. The cmdlet will overwrite the previous parameter values with new values. The parameters that you omit will remain unchanged. ::: ## Parameters

Parameter	Description	Type	Required	Position	Accept Pipeline Input
Datastore	Specifies the datastore where you want to create the VMware appliance. Accepts the `VBRViDatastore` appliance object. To get this object, run the `Find-VBRViDatastore` cmdlet.	`VBRViDatastore`	False	Named	False
DefaultGateway	Specifies the default gateway. This gateway will be used by the appliance.	`String`	False	Named	False
EnableIpv4Interface	Enables the IPv4 settings. If you provide this parameter, you will be able to specify the following settings. IPv4 address Subnet mask Default gateway Note: If you set this parameter to :$`False`, you will not be able to specify the network settings manually.	`Boolean`	False	Named	False
EnableIpv6Interface	Enables the IPv6 settings. If you provide this parameter, you will be able to specify the following settings. IPv6 address The length of an IPv6 prefix Default gateway Note: If you set this parameter to :$`False`, you will not be able to specify the network settings manually.	`Boolean`	False	Named	False
Folder	Specifies the folder where you want to create the Hyper-V appliance.	`String`	False	Named	False
IpAddress	Specifies the IP address. This address will be assigned to the appliance.	`String`	False	Named	False
Ipv6Address	Specifies the IPv6 address that you want to assign to the appliance.	`String`	False	Named	False
Ipv6DefaultGateway	Specifies the IPv6 address of the default gateway. The appliance will use this IP address.	`String`	False	Named	False
Ipv6PrefixLength	Specifies the length of an IPv6 prefix.	`Int32`	False	Named	False
Network	Specifies the service provider network. The appliance will use this network to communicate between the user's production VMs and VM replicas on the cloud host. Accepts the `IVBRServerNetworkInfo` object. To get this object, run the `Get-VBRHvServerNetworkInfo` or `Get-VBRViServerNetworkInfo` cmdlets.	`IVBRServerNetworkInfo`	False	Named	False
NetworkAppliance	Specifies the network appliance that you want to modify. Accepts the `VBRCloudTenantNetworkAp` appliance object. To get this object, run the `Get-VBRCloudTenantNetworkAppliance` cmdlet.	`VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance`	True	Named	False
ObtainIpAddressAutomatically	Defines that the cmdlet will assign the IPv4 address automatically.	`SwitchParameter`	False	Named	False
ObtainIpv6AddressAutomatically	Defines that the cmdlet will assign the IPv6 address automatically.	`SwitchParameter`	False	Named	False
ResourcePool	Specifies the resource pool where you want to create the VMware appliance. Accepts the `CViResourcePoolItem` appliance object. To get this object, run the `Find-VBRViResourcePool` cmdlet.	`CViResourcePoolItem`	False	Named	False
Server	The ESXi or a Hyper-V host where you want to create the appliance.	`CHost`	False	Named	False
SubnetMask	Specifies the subnet mask. This subnet mask will be used by the appliance.	`String`	False	Named	False
VLanId	Specifies the VLAN network provided to the user by the hardware plan. The appliance will use this VLAN to connect to the service provider network.	`Int32`	False	Named	False

`` This cmdlet supports Microsoft PowerShell common parameters. For more information on common parameters, see [ Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_commonparameters?view=powershell-7). ## Output Object - [`VBRViCloudProviderNetworkAppliance`](vbrvicloudprovidernetworkappliance.md) - [`VBRHvCloudProviderNetworkAppliance`](vbrhvcloudprovidernetworkappliance.md) ## Examples ::: example ### Example 1. Modifying Resource Pool Settings for VMware Appliance This example shows how to change the resource pool for a VMware appliance created on the `srv02.tech.local` host. ``` $provider = Get-VBRCloudProvider -Name "104.45.95.227" $viAppl = Get-VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance -CloudProvider $provider $server = $viAppl.Host $newResPool = Find-VBRViResourcePool -Name "ResourcePool_05" -Server $server $appliance = Set-VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance -NetworkAppliance $viAppl -ResourcePool $newResPool ``` Perform the following steps: 1. Run the [`Get-VBRCloudProvider`](get-vbrcloudprovider.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$provider` variable. 2. Run the [`Get-VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance`](get-vbrcloudprovidernetworkappliance.md) cmdlet. Set the `$provider` variable as the `CloudProvider` parameter value. Save the result to the `$viAppl` variable. 3. Assign the `$server` variable the `$viAppl.Host` value. 4. Run the [`Find-VBRViResourcePool`](find-vbrviresourcepool.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` and `Server` parameter values. Save the result to the `$newResPool` variable. 5. Run the `Set-VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance` cmdlet. Set the `$viAppl` variable as the `NetworkAppliance` parameter value. Set the `$newResPool` variable as the `ResourcePool` parameter value. Save the result to the `$appliance` variable. ::: ::: example ### Example 2. Modifying Folder Settings for Hyper-V Appliance This example shows how to change the folder for a Hyper-V appliance created on the `srv02.tech.local` host. ``` $provider = Get-VBRCloudProvider -Name "104.45.95.227" $viAppl = Get-VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance -CloudProvider $provider $newFolder = "C:\Users\admin" $appliance = Set-VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance -NetworkAppliance $hvAppl -Folder $newFolder ``` Perform the following steps: 1. Run the [`Get-VBRCloudProvider`](get-vbrcloudprovider.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Name` parameter values. Save the result to the `$provider` variable. 2. Run the [`Get-VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance`](get-vbrcloudprovidernetworkappliance.md) cmdlet. Set the `$provider` variable as the `CloudProvider` parameter value. Save the result to the `$viAppl` variable. 3. Assign the `$newFolder` variable the `C:\Users\admin` value. 4. Run the `Set-VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance` cmdlet. Set the `$hvAppl` variable as the `NetworkAppliance` parameter value. Set the `$newFolder` variable as the `Folder` parameter value. Save the result to the `$appliance` variable. ::: ## Related Commands - [`Get-VBRCloudProviderNetworkAppliance`](get-vbrcloudprovidernetworkappliance.md) - [`Get-VBRServer`](get-vbrserver.md) - [`Get-VBRHvServerNetworkInfo`](get-vbrhvservernetworkinfo.md) - [`Get-VBRViServerNetworkInfo`](get-vbrviservernetworkinfo.md) - [`Find-VBRViResourcePool`](find-vbrviresourcepool.md) - [`Find-VBRViDatastore`](find-vbrvidatastore.md)
