DHCP pools to desktops VDI

Hello

We deploy a large-scale VDI install for an application with 800 to 1000 users. The image is the same for all users, since they must have access to the same 2 applications.  The installer said that we need a 22 subnet for all these desktop computers.  Is that what this performance because of the questions?  How other sites that deploy? Any advice or design help is appreciated.  Side network, I'm leary about 1 large pool vs 4 manageable IP pools.

Thank you

Mike

Since you are considering such a large deployment, be sure to keep in mind some of the limits on the view components.

For example, View Composer can only create and up to 512 desktops by pool. Also, don't forget to take into account other factors such as the ports on your virtual switches (default value is 120), adding more than one connection to the server to handle the load, etc.

Most of the limitations you will encounter discuss Architecture VMware View Planning Guide and VMware View composer Design Considerations.

Good luck!

  • [wlc] secondary wlc in a 1:1, Ip dhcp pool redundancy

    Hello

    I will put up a high availability of 1:1 with 2 wlc 2504.

    I need to enter the ip address primary and backup controller and name to each AP.
    Unfortunately, we have a lot of AP and AP will more soon; it manually will take some time.

    I wonder if there is a way to give the secondary ip address to the ip dhcp pool? or any other stand-alone solution.

    Thank you very much

    For any additional consultation

    To quote one of the answers:
    The global primary and secondary come into play if there is no primary or secondary configured specifically in the AP. personally I've never used it however if you had only two controllers that would be ideal. I just see by specifying more granular level AP. personally I always use the HA tab for the ap as you never know how the deployment will evolve. You may fail aps to only one controller several controllers. You may need the HA failover priority. It is always useful to understand what will happen when your controllers fail and can become interesting if you have several controllers with several groups of AP and RF to profiles that you really need start controlling what ap's going where.

    As you can see, most of the Admins do not configure the Global setting.
    Just be patient in their configuration by AP XD

  • DNS DHCP pool (internal DNS issue)

    I know that we can implement several DNS server under DHCP pool. But I want to assure the order.

    I have several branches.

    Let's say 1 division Office has a router with 10.30.1.1 as a default gateway.

    Our internal DNS is 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 as Pri and dry.

    My order of DNS server is as below.

    1 gateway

    2 internal DNS

    3 public DNS provided by ISP

    I saw two or three questions when I put the internal DNS first. Special situation is when IPsec does not work, users could not access the internet through domain name because they had internal DNS that is not accessible.

    But when the door is of the first order, I don't know if users are able to access the internal Web site because gateway DNS does not have internal DNS records.

    So, my question is which. What should be the best order for installing DNS under DHCP between default gateway, internal DNS and DNS?  Our current configuration does not have same gateway address, there only internal DNS addresses only.

    dhcp pool IP CCP-pool1

    Network 10.30.1.0 255.255.255.0

    name of domaine.org

    router by default - 10.30.1.1

    -10.30.1.1 NetBIOS name server

    10.30.1.1 DNS server 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2 24.25.5.60

    (1) I think your logic is right.

    (2) you are welcome.

    (3) I now see how the link relates to question 3. Yes, the difference between the specification of a name server for the router itself with ip name-server and clients by using the dns server is an important point.

    I am glad that you tell us that you had ip domain-lookup because it would have been my follow-up to the issue. Can you tell us exactly what the response of the router was when you tried to ping google.com? I suspect it's something in your router config. You can post a copy sanitized the router config?

    Thanks for the compliment - and for points.

  • RV325 DHCP pool limits

    Is it possible to have a larger than 50 ip addresses dhcp pool in RV325 (firmware 1.1.1.19)?

    Assuming that your using the RV325 as the DHCP server, Yes, you need to go into the configuration of the DHCP Server page and change the departure, arrival or the two IP addresses to make the pool as big or small as you want.

  • Is it possible to assign the DHCP pool to a specific SSID?

    Hi experts,

    I wanted to know if it is possible to assign a DHCP pool to a specific SSID on the Cisco Aironet 1142. If so, what commands do I need to implement?

    Thanks in advance.

    concerning

    Fari

    We can directly assign the DHCP for the SSID pool, we can map the SSID to a VLAN and this subnet VLANS can be configured for the DHCP pool...

    If this client that connects to the SSID will hit him VLAN and then this VLAN the DHCP is reset...

    On the access point, you can configure the DHCP pool or even on the switch or L3 device or server...

  • Is it possible deploy Windows 7 floating - Linked clone pool for 10 VDIs and licensing through KMS?

    Hi all

    I would like to build a floating - linked clone pool for 10 VDIs and lincense them using KMS.

    I read that the KMS solution is valid when you deploy more than 25 VDIs but if my VDIs are rebuild a few times during the day, why KMS does not work for me?

    I have an installed KMS and I think the job properly, but when I build my Windws 7 pool for each computer I always get this message:

    "Discover the State of the agent (16) composer initialization error: impossible to activate the license (waited 1275 seconds).

    If anyone can tell me what I should do to fix.

    Thank you

    What I do for this is to simply begin your pool with 26 machines and all have power upward.  Then just make sure all active and then reduce it down to the size you want.  Your environment might suffer a little performance while you do this, but it does the job for you.  A tip - don't forget to make offices and BONES.

  • ASA5510: dhcp-pool with another address interface range

    Hi all!

    I currently installs an asa5510 for VPN access:

    I want the ASA acting as DHCP server for the remote user, now I have an external Interface with an official IP address and the remote user must obtain a private address additional 192.168.x.x for the VPN connection.

    So if I want to configure the pool of addresses on the outside interface, it is not allowed, because the pool addresses are not in the same network as the IP address of the interface.

    Y at - it no trick or tip to get something like this race?

    I have not it's very exotic?

    Thanks for your help

    Karl

    Hi Karl,

    So if I understand correctly, you have only 20 Ip addresses, in the pool and also want to provide an ip address to the DNS server for the hosts.

    This can be accomplished by:

    hostname(config)# isakmp policy 1 authentication pre-share

    hostname(config)# isakmp policy 1 encryption 3des
    hostname(config)# isakmp policy 1 hash sha

    hostname(config)# isakmp policy 1 group 2
    hostname(config)# isakmp policy 1 lifetime 43200
    hostname(config)# isakmp enable outside
    hostname(config)# ip local pool testpool 192.168.0.10-192.168.0.30

    !the 20 ip addresses would be mentioned in the pool above!

    hostname(config)# username testuser password 12345678
    hostname(config)# crypto ipsec transform set FirstSet esp-3des esp-md5-hmac
    hostname(config)# group-policy dns-policy internal
    hostname(config)# group-policy dns-policy attributes
    hostname(config-group-policy)# dns-server
    hostname(config-group-policy)# exit
    hostname(config)# tunnel-group testgroup type ipsec-ra
    hostname(config)# tunnel-group testgroup general-attributes
    hostname(config-general)# address-pool testpool
    hostname(config-general)# default-group-policy dns-policy
    hostname(config)# tunnel-group testgroup ipsec-attributes
    hostname(config-ipsec)# pre-shared-key 44kkaol59636jnfx
    hostname(config)# crypto dynamic-map dyn1 1 set transform-set FirstSet
    hostname(config)# crypto dynamic-map dyn1 1 set reverse-route
    hostname(config)# crypto map mymap 1 ipsec-isakmp dynamic dyn1
    hostname(config)# crypto map mymap interface outside

    This will give the DNS ip from the dns-policy, and a client ip from one of the 20 ip addresses in the pool.
    Hope this helps.

  • Recommendations of the pools and desktop for simple deployment PoC

    So I was the installation and configuration of the Starter View 5 pack (10 connections) for a COP here and went around in a circle a little when it comes to how I should better serve up some of the resources of the office.  Here's the use case.

    Already dedicated VM for remote developers.  Single user for a single virtual machine.

    A couple of computer test virtual than say, a group of 5 people can connect at any given time (for testing)

    A physical computer with a map of PCoIP host that will be negotiated by the view.  One of a handful of people could connect at any time to test.

    All virtual machines are all simple VM with the view agent installed (the composer was not in the mix on any one of them).

    So what I've done, it of just to create a number of manual pools, then give the right to assign users to each, so they can try all of them at once.  Unfortunately, I seem to be consistenly falling on an issue where after a user connects and disconnects, another entitled user tries to open a session and gets the message of: "no source funds assigned to this desktop computer.  Please contact your system administrator. "Newspapers of events indicating: 'machines that responded to the questionnaire are currently in use' I have looked at all the relevant KB, but do not quite get to where I'm running on the problem.

    My approach is wrong?  I'm going to fund these differently to provide more flexible availability during this test?

    Fragmentary salvation,

    Okay, those are the things that come to mind.

    The pool, you have problems, which has dedicated assignment? If so, then when a user connects and gets a desktop computer it becomes assigned to them and no one else can have it even if they disconnect you. Difficulty? Change to floating assignmnet

    Another problem I find is that many users seem to not want to close the session, they simply disconnect the machines. Depending on your settings they porbably is not disconnected until forced. When they are disconnected yet nobody else can connect

    Another thing would be that the machines are turned off/sleep/hibernate after disconnection, but I think the display manager might wake them up, but I'm not sure.

    Basically when you get this error message on what it means that the display manager is looking at unassigned machines and do not get a signal from the agent, which indicates that the machine is, connected to and ready.

    These things sound right?

    See you soon

  • DHCP server press PowerConnect 28xx series / address pool by VLAN

    Hello

    I am reading the manual of the PowerConnect 2824.

    I am considering buying this switch, but I have a question related to the functionality of the DHCP server.

    Here my question: I want to have different VLAN and use the feature of DHCP server on each of them. Then can I have different address DHCP pools by VLAN?

    Example:

    1-16 ports VLAN1: IP subnet 192.168.1.0/24

    VLAN 2 ports 17-24: IP subnet 192.168.2.0/24

    The manual is not clear on this.

    Your help is welcome.

    Kind regards

    Tom

    Daniel,

    Thanks for the reply. Another question does this mean that the 28xx series switch DHCP server, recover the IP address (from the range configured) on all the VLANS configured? So if a device on VLAN 2 issued a request DHCP, it will get an IP address from the same pool as for example a device on VLAN 1.

    Kind regards

  • Pool of dhcp NAT VPN to the LAN on router 2911

    I need nat the ips assigned by dhcp vpn to my LAN pool. My problem is that I do not know which interface to set my nat statement on since there is no interface that is in the same subnet as my dhcp pool. Any help would be appreciated.

    For remote client ipsec, you must have DVTI according to configuration described here:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/iOS/12_3t/12_3t14/feature/guide/gtIPSctm...

    'use ip nat inside' on the virtual model and 'ip nat outside' on the inside of the interface.

  • Persistent desktops to a pool?

    I would create a pool of desktops, 75 total.  However, I would like each user to obtain the same office every time they connect.  So, if my machines have been set up in XP - 001, 002 - XP... XP-075.  I would that user X always get XP - 043 for his office.  I want to do for the helpdesk, because they serve to have a user to use the same office.  I know that I can do this with manual work stations, but these workstations cannot used linked clones and therefore burn a lot of storage space.

    -Gunnar

    Yes, that's correct.  This means that once a user connects to a computer, they will receive this machine and it will use from this time.  If you have a need to manage these relationships, you can use the command vdmadmin to the broker for connections.

  • General question about DHCP network configuration

    In the past, I've always set up printers on network with a static IP address. With the proliferation of networked printers and progress in the printer driver software, I wonder if the static configuration is always recommended and necessary.

    Let's say I have install an Officejet 6500 wireless printer configured for DHCP and it gets an address 192.168.1.7. To continue, the printer driver is installed on the computers all networked and the printer port is listed as HPxxx192.168.1.7. After a break from running, say that the address assigned dynamically changes printer 192.168.1.5, leading to the question... to will the computers still be able to print to the printer who has now a new IP address? Basically, is the intelligent print driver so that he will direct the print jobs to the new address without additional configuration? (perhaps the answer varies depending on the printer model and the operating system of the client)

    I have installed HP network printers on a regular basis in a variety of operating system environments. So the question in more specific general. I don't feel a particular problem at this stage. But when I configure network printers in the future, an answer to the question will be useful.

    Thanks in advance.

    It depends on.  On older printers a static IP address is very important on the latest not so much. It is really dependent on the platform on which rests the HP software.  HP printers currentlyon market, in theory, do not need static IP addresses.

    In addition, when you set a static IP address, I always put one outside DHCP pool.  If the range is the range (.2 a.254) I reduced the scope and then put printers outside the pool.  This way there is never any conflict.
