specific BOSH features supported by the CPI.\n\n\n### Network\n\nThe CPI supports multiple NICs being attached to a single VM.\n\n| Network Type | Support |\n| ------------ | ------- |\n| Manual | Multiple networks per instance |\n| Dynamic | Not Supported |\n| VIP | Not Supported |\n\n\n### Encryption\n\nvSphere supports disk encryption and customer-managed keys when managed through policy configuration within the vCenter 6.5+ ([learn more](https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.7/com.vmware.vsphere.security.doc/GUID-A29066CD-8EF8-4A4E-9FC9-8628E05FC859.html)). For this functionality, encryption occurs at the hypervisor level which is transparent to the VM. Once enabled within vCenter, no additional configuration is required for the CPI.\n\n| Disk Type | Encryption |\n| --------- | ---------- |\n| Root Disk | Supported |\n| Ephemeral Disk | Supported |\n| Persistent Disk | Supported |\n\n\n### Miscellaneous\n\n| Feature | Support |\n| ------- | ------- |\n| Multi-CPI | Supported, [v34](https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh-vsphere-cpi-release/releases/tag/v34)+ |\n| Native Disk Resize | Not Supported |\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcloudfoundry%2Fbosh-vsphere-cpi-release","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcloudfoundry%2Fbosh-vsphere-cpi-release","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcloudfoundry%2Fbosh-vsphere-cpi-release/lists"}
