Myself

To create virtual machine for myself, select the checkbox Create Virtual Machine for myself and specify required information as:

• Assign Public IP Address: Check the checkbox to automatically assign a public IP to the virtual machine. Hosting Controller will pick an IP from the available range defined for the Hyper-V host and assign it to the virtual machine. A single IP is assigned to the machine at the time of its creation. However, more IPs can be assigned to the machine later from its dashboard.
• Assign Private IP Address: Check the checkbox to automatically assign a private IP to the virtual machine.
• Public VLAN:  VLANs can be assigned to VMs during creation or they can be assigned after creation through the VM dashboard.
• Virtual Machine Name: Specify the hostname of the virtual machine.
• Admin Account: Administrator of the virtual machine. The administrator’s name will be displayed on the summary page.
• Password: Set the password for the machine administrator. The password will be displayed on the summary page.
