Description

## Feature Request

Is it possible to retrieve the distributed port group of each vm ?

### Proposal:
Use the name of the Distributed Port Group
### Current behavior:
interface="vmnic4"
### Desired behavior:
interface="tenant|app|epg" if the distributed Port Group is "tenant|app|epg" like Cisco ACI.
### Use case:

Research direction

Start by locating the vSphere VM network collection entry point that currently reports interfaces such as "vmnic4". Check how distributed port groups are exposed for each VM and define completion as reporting the distributed port group name, such as "tenant|app|epg", instead of the current interface value.
