In this recipe, we will demonstrate how to create a network label specification file by exporting the configuration of an existing virtual desktop master image.

Getting ready

To export the network label specification file that will be used to create linked-clone pools, we need a virtual desktop master image that is configured with our desired virtual machine network settings. The virtual machine should also have a snapshot taken, as this is a prerequisite for images that will be used to create linked-clone desktop pools.

The maximum number of VMs that will be created per network label is 250, and the network label specification file will be created on the D drive:
