Discover VMware vCenter Networks

Prerequisites: A user account with the minimum read-only role is required to enable NetBrain to discover a vCenter network.

Note: The following screenshot is based on vCenter version 6.7 and is subject to change in higher versions.

Note: Check the Propagate to children option when you create the Read-only account.

The main flow of discovering VMware vCenter networks are as follows:

1. Set Up API Server in NetBrain — define the required parameters to access 3^rd-party systems via APIs.
2. Discover vCenter Data in NetBrain — discover the network data model in a NetBrain domain.
3. Auto-Update vCenter Data in NetBrain through Benchmark — execute a benchmark task to retrieve all data and build all components, including visual spaces and data views.
