  Note:

  • When you create an L2 network with the L2NoVlanNetwork type, you can attach it to a cluster. Or, you can attach it to the cluster after you create the L2 network with the L2NoVlanNetwork type, as shown in Create L2NoVlanNetwork.
  • If the L2 network is not attached to the cluster, you cannot use this L2 network to create VM instances.
