21.9 Configuring the DHCP Service for Target VMs

You can use DHCP services to get IP address information for the target workload, or specify a static IPaddress, subnet mask, and gateway for the VM to use.

The Use DHCP to get network address details setting is enabled by default. Deselect the check box to specify a static IP address, then specify the network address settings for the target network.

  • IP Address: IPv4 format.

  • Subnet Mask: IPv4 format.

  • Default Gateway: IPv4 format.

    NOTE:Only the primary NIC can provide the default gateway address if you use DHCP to get network address details.

NOTE:If the source workload or target workload is located in a different internal (private) network behind a network address translation (NAT) device, it might be unable to communicate with its counterpart to replicate the workload. On the affected workload, ensure that you specify a public IP address for the NIC you use for replication.
