switch.yaml

# needs SSH active on ESXi host
# needs SSH public key from HomeAssistant in ESXi ssh authorized_keys config '/etc/ssh/keys-<username>/authorized_keys' Have a look here: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1002866
# get VM ID on ESXi commandline by 'vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms' You need to set this in the scripts commands where 00 is shown
# needs VMware Tools installed on the VM you want to control 
# change in Switch: ESXi ip address, VM ID, switch name and switch friendly name
