The Role :- Virtual Machine :- Interaction:- Device Connection allows Connect/Disconnect Network devices.<br />

But you also need to add the role :- Network:- Assign Network.<br />

and this permissions needs to be granted to Datacenter Networking as well as permission for the VM or Folder.

Yes,,i think &quot;Connect Devices&quot; is the same,,,<br />
<br />
Once I added the user permission to &nbsp;Datacenter, it looks like it is working.<br />
<br />
I have to follow up with a new question in my next &quot;Ask a question&quot;

I am setting up a role in our Test and Dev vCenter to allow certain user to modify their VMs. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Which permission / role will allow them to connect to network adapters assigned to their VMs?<br />

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
