Auto deploy and static ip address

Hello,

Is it possible to sign a static ip address to the esxi host in the host profile through the answer file?

In my case esxi host is added to the vcenter appliance (5.1), I sign static ip address in the answer file and it is applied to the host.

But after that vcenter that not see this host with the new ip address and esxi host reboot does not help.

Any advices?

Thanks.
