Networking
  • HasPublicIPAddress - Specifies if the virtual machine has a public IP address or not. The default value is False.
  • NetworkSecurityGroupName - Specifies the name of the network security group. This parameter is taken into consideration only when the NICNetworkSecurityGroup parameter has the value Advanced. This field supports only strings and String variables.
  • NICNetworkSecurityGroup - Specifies the type of NIC network security group. The possible values are None, Basic, Advanced. The default value is None.
  • PublicInboundPorts - Specifies the list of public inbound ports. If a value is not set, all internet traffic is blocked. This parameter is used only when the NICNetworkSecurityGroup parameter has the value Basic.
  • PublicIPAddressName - Specifies the name of a public IP address. If the HasPublicIPAddress parameter has the value True but this parameter is not set, then it autogenerates a public IP address name. This field supports only strings and String variables.
  • SubnetName - Specifies the name of the subnet. If no value is added, then the default subnet name is used. This field supports only strings and String variables.
  • VirtualNetworkName - Specifies the name of the virtual network that needs to be joined by the newly created machine. If no value is added, then a new virtual network is created. This field supports only strings and String variables.
