I discussed this lately with one of my customers...

Isn't it possible to change the network with
acli vm.nic_update?

Should be much easier than deleting and re-adding a new nic... I am not sure this will work, but according to the documentation, it should...

Regards,
Bart

Nope. This is for using VM NIC as trunk or access port to pass multiple VLAN on single VM NIC

It does work but you need to shutdown the VM first.

Do a vm.off "VMNAME"

Then do the following, Example:

vm.nic_update Test 50:6b:8d:f6:d0:9c network=VLAN 51
