If no resources are listed, you must add a resource. See Create a network set.

You can use the Network Sets screen to view the details of network sets, and to create, edit, and delete network sets.

## General

Screen component | Description
--- | ---
Preferred Bandwidth | The default preferred bandwidth for the network set, in Gb/s
Maximum Bandwidth | The default maximum bandwidth for the network set, in Gb/s
Used by | A hyperlink to the server profile(s) that the network set is being used by If the network set is being used by a single-server profile, the link opens the overview of the server profile on the Server Profiles screen. If the network set is being used by multiple server profiles, the link opens a dialog box that lists the profiles with links to their overviews on the Server Profiles screen.

## Networks

Screen component | Description
--- | ---
Networks | The name and VLAN ID of the networks in the network set The network name is a hyperlink to the overview of the network on the Networks screen

## Create or edit a network set

Screen component | Description
--- | ---
Name | A unique name for the network set you are creating. Adhere to your own best practices for network naming conventions, if you have them.
Examples: | `vm network` `devnets` `CorporateLab` `Development Hub`
Type | The type of network. You cannot change this value. Network sets are supported for tagged Ethernet networks only.
Preferred bandwidth | The preferred bandwidth, in Gb/s, to be used when this network set is used by a server profile. The preferred bandwidth setting of a network set can be overridden by a server profile. Changing this value for a network set will not affect server profiles that are overriding it. This value cannot be greater than the Maximum bandwidth value.
Data type: | A number between 0.1 Gb/s and 20 Gb/s. A decimal point is not required.
Default value: | `2.5` If you create multiple network sets in the same session, the default value is the value used for the last network set you created. For example, if you set a value of 5 for the preferred bandwidth, the default for this session is 5.
Examples: | `3.5` `5`
Maximum bandwidth | The maximum bandwidth, in Gb/s, to be used when this network set is used by a server profile. This value cannot be less than the preferred bandwidth
Data type: | A number between 0.1 Gb/s and 20 Gb/s. A decimal point is not required.
Default value: | `20.0` If you create multiple network sets in the same session, the default value is the value used for the last network set you created. For example, if you set a value of 9.5 for the maximum bandwidth, the default for this session is 9.5.
Examples: | `8.5` `9`
Networks | Enables you to select and remove networks and to designate an untagged network. The items displayed depend on whether or not there are networks configured for this network set.
List of networks | A list of all networks that are members of this network set. This list is available only if the network set contains networks. In order for a network set to be used in a server profile connection, all networks in the network set must be available on the logical interconnect group and the logical interconnect that contain the connection. For a given network: Select Untagged to designate the network as the network to be used for untagged packets. One network in a network set can be untagged. Click X to remove the network from the network set.
Add networks | Enables you to add networks to the network set. When you click Add networks, the Add Networks to network set dialog box opens to display a list of networks you can add to the network set. To select multiple networks, use the Ctrl or Shift key while clicking. For information about this dialog box, see Add Networks to network set dialog box. If no tagged Ethernet networks are available to be added, this button is disabled.
Remove all | Removes all networks from this network set This button appears if the network set contains networks. Use this button to remove all networks from the network set before you add their replacements. If a server profile adds a connection to an empty network set, the server cannot connect to any data center networks using that connection.

## Add Networks to network set dialog box

Use the Add Networks to network set dialog box to add networks to a network set. To access the dialog box, click the Add networks button on the Create Network Set or Edit Network Set screen.

Screen component | Description
--- | ---
Search box | Filters the list of networks to display only networks that have names that begin with the characters you type in the box
List of networks | Lists all networks that are available for membership in this network set. This list includes the name and VLAN ID for each network. To change the sort order of the list, click a column heading. To select a network, click a row. To select multiple networks, use the Ctrl or Shift key while clicking.
