Configuring a Desktop Network

Scenario

When the network of a user changes, you can switch the desktop network settings so that the user can quickly switch the desktop network.

Prerequisites

To use the desktop network setting function, fill in the service ticket information to obtain technical support. For details, see Submitting a Service Ticket.

Notes

  • Switching the network will change the subnet, IP address, and MAC address of the cloud desktop, resulting in network disconnection.
  • During the network switchover, do not perform operations on the EIP of the cloud desktop.
  • After the network is switched, reconfigure network-related services and application software (such as NAT and DNS).
  • Switching the network will switch the private IP address. If the desktop bound to an EIP cannot be bound to another EIP after the network settings are changed, perform the binding manually.
  • If the network of a stopped desktop is switched, the desktop will be started first, the network is switched, and then the desktop is shut down.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Workspace console.
  2. In the navigation pane, choose Desktops > Desktops.
  3. Locate the row that contains the desktop whose VPC is to be switched and choose More > Network settings > Desktop network settings.
  4. Configure desktop network settings.

    • VPC: Click to select the VPC to be switched. To create a VPC, see Creating a VPC and Subnet. If a newly created VPC is used, choose Tenant Configuration > Basic Configuration and click Edit VPC under VPC to add the VPC.
    • Subnet: Click to select the subnet to be switched. To create a subnet, see Creating a VPC and Subnet. If a newly created subnet is used, choose Tenant Configuration > Basic Configuration and click Edit Subnet under VPC to add the subnet.
    • Private IP address: Select a private IP address assignment mode as required.
      • Automatically assign an IP address.
      • Manually assign an IP address.
      • Use an existing elastic network interface.
    • Security group: Click to select the security group to be switched. To create a security group, see Creating a Security Group.

  5. Confirm the desktop network configuration.
