Suggestion for Product Improvement: Virtual Lab Appliance's network setting UI

[ynojiri@kel.co.jp]

Hello Team,

I recently configured a Virtual Lab Appliance for SureBackup.

In my environment, neither a default gateway nor DNS servers are required. However, the Virtual Lab Appliance GUI treats these settings as mandatory, preventing the configuration from being completed unless values are provided. While these parameters can be omitted when using PowerShell, Veeam Support has informed me that they cannot be reset to "None" once configured.

Assuming that leaving the default gateway and DNS settings unconfigured does not cause any critical functional issues, I would like to request an enhancement that would:

・Allow Virtual Lab Appliance deployment without specifying a default gateway or DNS servers in the GUI.
・Allow users to clear these settings or set them to "None" through PowerShell after deployment.

This enhancement would improve flexibility for isolated environments where these network settings are not required.

We would greatly appreciate your consideration of this request for a future release.

Best regards,
Yasuhiro Nojiri

Hi ynojiri {at} kel.co.jp,

Noted, we can certainly discuss it, but for now please use PowerShell for such deployments.

As for clearing the settings, if a wrong configuration is set, it is better to remove the created Virtual Lab and recreate it fresh.
