• With the help of VLANS and VLAN Tagging is not working / no connection

  Hello

  I m trying to configure a VLAN between some virtual machines on ESX host 3.

  I want to do this way:

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1004074

  I got 1 dedicated NETWORK adapter to each ESX host that is connected to a dvSwitch in which I configured a portgroup

  with VLAN ID 2121. I have configured each virtual machine to use this network.

  When I put the virtual machines on a single host, they are able to communicate.

  When they are placed on different hosts they are (if the VIRTUAL LAN is enabled on portgroup) not able to communicate.

  So I m assuming it must be a problem in the config NIC on the ESX host or switch.

  I m using a HP2910AL on which I activated mode trunk for each port that is connected to a NETWORK card with

  the dvSwitch/Portgroup I try to use for the vlan. In the hp switch, I have a default VLAN with ID 1 where

  the Ports are marked not signposted. I install a second VLAN on the switch with ID 2121 in which I scored

  This tag ports.

  Is there something else to do - perhaps side ESX host?

  I tried changing the settings as "forged transmission-> allow ' on portgroup and I found other things

  in the web, but always without success.

  Kind regards

  Were you referred to this guide? :

  http://CDN.ProCurve.com/training/manuals/2910-ATG-Feb09-2-VLAN.PDF

  "show vlan ports" would be my next check to make sure that you have connected to your ESXi host 3 ports in the vlan 2121.

  As Duncan has said if you have a VLAN ID on the portgroup in the vSwitch and you have the port on the pSwitch as trunk not acess and VLAN ID is allowed on the trunk port pSwitch you should be ok.  Just to clarify the trunk is 802. 1 q No 802.3ad.

  The reverse is not VLAN ID on the portgroup vSwitch, use coelio on pSwitch with VLAN ID.  Limited pSwitch port to a VLAN, this may be ok for you?

• Configurations of VMotion and VLAN

  Configurations of VMotion and VLAN

  ESXi 4.0 / 4.0 vCenter

  Can someone explain how to configure the ports VMotion using VIRTUAL LANs.

  Here's the design;

  Two network adapters for teaming on a virtual standard switch 0

  A network for management and another network for VMotion traffic

  The ports management group is on VLAN 103 and its default gateway is set to the network VLAN 103

  When I add a for VMotion VMkernel port group and configure the network, and I use the gateway of 103 VLAN by default I can't vmkping the other interfaces for VMotion similar configuration.

  If I change the default gateway settings and use VMotion gateway, then bad things happen, i.e. lose connectivity to the service console.

  Thanks,-Jeff

  Both an eon of ar sthjey the same physical segment (i.e., the plughed in the same physical switch) there will be no need for a gateway for the vmotion network address.

• PowerConnect 5548 and VLAN

  Good afternoon!

  I'm looking to implement a 5548 in our existing infrastructure. I want to preface this by saying that I am very new to networking.

  I'm looking to have at least two VLANS separated.

  -The first vlan for public sites face. These will have static public IP addresses.

  -The second VLAN is iSCSI traffic. I would like that it won't face public.

  Is it possible to Setup or should I be looking for a different solution.

  If possible, how should I go about setting up?

  Thank you!

  The port that connects to your router should be placed in Trunk mode with the VLAN you want in the trunk port. All ports are in VLAN1 access mode by default, this means that the port that plugs into your routing device is in access mode for VLAN 1 and VLAN 1 has internet access. For traffic VLAN 2 to access routing equipment that you will need to change cela port in Trunk mode and adds 2 VLAN as a VLAN Tag.

• Subinterfaces and VLAN

  Hi all

  I was hired on with a State... Now its been awhile, but I do not remember how subinterfaces and VLAN all link together!

  Now correct me where I'm wrong (please), but them VLAN is created on the correct first switches?  When you create a VLAN on a switch you don't need ip or gateway address by default because them VLANS are the switch.  If you want intervlan routing you need a router.  Then, you configure a port trunking between the switch and router (ISL, 802. 1 q).  Now in the router, you can create a VLAN, and here you inter the ip subnet or the default gateway addresses correct?  This is where I get confused as to what reasons do you need subinterfaces?  How they roped VLAN and what would be the logical flow of data?

  Anyhelp would be appreciated!

  Yes you are right. If you are using the layer 2 switch and want to make the intervlan Routing then you need Layer 3 router device. But you must configure the interfaces sub with the default gateway to route traffic. Because there is a single trunk between swich and router so we need sup interfaces for multiple VLANs.

  Interface FastEthernet0/0.1

  Encapsulation dot1q 10 (10 represent 10 ID VLAN)

  10.1.1.1 IP address 255.255.255.0

  If you use a layer 3 switch, then you point all sub interfaces need so then you can create the interface vlan with the default gateway. You must enable ip Routing.

  Interface vlan 10

  10.1.1.1 IP address 255.255.255.0

  Hope this will help.

  Please rate if this can help.

  Thank you

• VPN and VLAN

  We have a site divided into 2 IEE802.1Q VLAN, using no switches Cisco. They have a PIX515 for Internet access. It is also configured to provide inbound VPN access for management and general purpose of access.

  In principle it is possible to set up a new VPN connection which is reflected by its interior traffic be tagged with a specific VLAN ID while all other traffic (including other VPN connections) remain without a label?

  If the PIX ends your VPN from the outside that the answer is no. If the VPN is coming from outside, and ending at the PIX she never travels a VLAN. VLAN tagging is used to identify what VLAN came from a source image and what VLAN it is intended for a current switch vlan can 'route' frame through the appropriate VIRTUAL LAN. Why you want to tag from outside VPN traffic? If it's to control access, you can specify 2 VLANS and VLAN 3 on the PIX (as long as it has code 6.3) and control what VLAN, you want that each group VPN access to through the use of the ACL. Each VLAN on a PIX is treated as a physical interface. It has its own security prefs (0-100) and can have ACL applied to them as well as the physical interfaces.

• Create 2 VLAN (VLAN 1 and VLAN 2)

  Hi all

  I need help and advice with my new Cisco SF300-48. I want to create 2 vlan (vlan 1 and vlan 2). The switch is set at layer 2.

  example:

  VLAN 1 (port 1, 2, 3), vlan 2 (port 4, 5, 6)

  VLAN 1 can communicate with each other (port 1, 2, 3) and vlan 2 can communicate with each other (port 4, 5, 6)

  But vlan 1 cannot communicate with vlan 2.

  Any help would be appreciated

  Thank you

  Johan

  Well, as far as I understand the message communication between the VLAN is not necessary. The thing is, that all ports LAN VIRTUAL (for example VLAN 1 with ports 1, 2, and 3) cannot communicate with each other. Did you check the configuration of the port / VLAN (VLAN configured to each port configuration right / right about the tag-no identified)?

• Management and Vlan native in different subnet?

  Can I have a management ip and vlan native in a different on AIR-1242 switch subnet and 2960?

  Native on switch = 1.

  The interface vlan 100 = 10.10.1.25X 24

  BVI ip to the vlan 100 = 10.10.1.25X 24

  -HM-

  Hello

  As far as I know, the management and the native will be the same... I guess... You have Vlan native as 1 on the switch and Int Vlan 100 on routing switch? Am I wrong? Let me know what are your needs... which will help me to help out you!

  for your question...

  Normally, we specify him vlan native on the switch and the AP so that communication happens... communication won't happen if there is a match of...

  Looking forward to hear from you!

  Let me know if that answers your question...

• Want to take the certification VCP6-VTC, but I finished the 5.5 ESXi and vCenter Server 5.5

  Hello

  2 years ago I had the training for 5.5 ESXi and vCenter Server 5.5 - I wonder if that would satisfy the requirement and allows me to pass the exam VCP6-VTC?  Or should I stick with the VTC VCDP5 only?

  Have you taken after school.

  5.5 vSphere install, configure and manage.

  If so, please attend vSphere: what's new [5.5 to 6.0]

  It is a 2 day course that will allow you to take the exam VCP6-VTC.

  Otherwise, take VCP550 review and upgrade to VCP6-VTC in taking 2V0 - 621D.

• vCloud Director: using different groups of ESXi and vCenters

  Apologies for a question very newb-ish, but my knowledge of the vCD is very limited.

  VCD of can control and manage the following:

  1. multiple ESXi clusters under the vCenter even?

  vCD-> ESXi group has and ESXi cluster B

  2. several server vCenter, with their own groups of ESXi.

  vCD-> A vCenter and vCenter B.  vCenter cluster Cluster A1 ESXi and ESXi A2 A-> .  vCenter B-> Cluster B1 ESXi and ESXi cluster B2.

  I hope that all the senses.  I'll be happy to extrapolate more.

  Hello

  Please find the answers

  1. multiple ESXi clusters under the vCenter even?

  vCD-> ESXi group has and ESXi cluster B

  Yes, VCD support certainly take the resources of multiple clusters. To be more specific model allocation is deciding factor we can extend on cluster or not.

  2. several server vCenter, with their own groups of ESXi.

  vCD-> A vCenter and vCenter B.  vCenter-> Cluster A1 ESXi and ESXi cluster A2.  vCenter B-> Cluster B1 ESXi and ESXi cluster B2.

  Yes, we can certainly have several VC related to VCD. To max, it supports 25 VC.

• The traffic between a host ESXi and vCenter Server is secure?

  Dear team,

  You pray let me know is traffic between a host ESXi and vCenter server (vice versa) is secure?

  The VC and ESXi version is 5.1U1a

  Mr. VMware

  Default SSL certificates are installed automatically. However, you can configure the third-party SSL certificates to make the environment more secure.

• ESXi and local RAID 1 - do not know if it works

  I have setup a RAID 1 (2 discs) on my box of ESXi. Now I loaded ESXi and registered in with the vSphere client. In "The memory", is to show both of these drives. Should it only showing a?

  

  I thought that ESXi should see 'one' in the car for me to put on.and data warehouses, then the RAID controller would just reflect. But when I try to create a data store, it allows me to opt for the second time either of these discs on first, then the other drive. Is this job right? This doesn't seem to be just if I can just add warehouses of data on each disk individually.

  which means that you are not using the controller RAID HRDWARE and using your software RAID. in esxi software RAID is not supported

• a few questions about ESXi and SAN CF with HP P2000 G3

  Hello everyone!

  I am new to ESXi and SAN, then I need help for her.

  I have Encolosure C7000 system with 4 blades BL460c already installed ESXi 5.1U1 (HP custome ISO image). Everything works fine now, but I do not understand something:

  -What is the management network which I use vSphare Client to connect to? It is a private network to manage ESXi servers what difference with VMnetwork used by Virtual Machines? Because I've set up an IP address for this connection manually, but it is of course separate with IP addresses, I used on Virtual Machines.

  -If my system has problem, so I have to reinstall ESXi, license keys can be used again? Already, I have 8 license key for 4 blades (2 CPUs per server), but they have not yet used. Because I am new to ESXi, cause I had to reinstall ESXi several times to understand.

  -When I install successful ESXi, I don't know how to start working with SAN. What should I configure P2000 before it be plugged into the SAN switch? Or I can plug it then config later? Because I don't see it on the ESXi server. And on the OS I installed on the Guest Virtual Machines, I see nothing new in Device Manager. I thought that this guest operating system will detect the mezzanine card. But I see only mezzanine card that connect to the P2000 by SAN switch in ESXi (see image here http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/684/dsc04088k.jpg ). To my knowledge, I think that ESXi server have to detect the P2000 as hardware device. Can someone teach me step by step install and configure a San on ESXi? Or show me a tutorial because I searched but only iSCSI results.

  My devices:

  01 7.1 HP BLc7000 CTO 3 IN LCD ROHS Encl.

  04 BL460c G8 servers HP FlexFabric 8.5 10 Gb 2 p 554FLB FIO blade adapter

  02 7.3 HP B-series 8/12 c BladeSystem SAN Switch

  Thanks for any help, sugession or comment!

Because I've set up an IP address for this connection manually, but it is of course separate with IP addresses, I used on Virtual Machines.

  Yes, it's a separate network used only for traffic management between ESXi hosts and vCenter - it is also the network used to connect to the environment - that's different, then the network used by your virtual machines

  -If my system has problem, so I have to reinstall ESXi, license keys can be used again? Already, I have 8 license key for 4 blades (2 CPUs per server), but they have not yet used. Because I am new to ESXi, cause I had to reinstall ESXi several times to understand.

  Yes the license keys can be reused, and if you use vCenter licenses will be managed by vCenter

  -When I install successful ESXi, I don't know how to start working with SAN. What should I configure P2000 before it be plugged into the SAN switch? Or I can plug it then config later? Because I don't see it on the ESXi server. And on the OS I installed on the Guest Virtual Machines, I see nothing new in Device Manager.

Or show me a tutorial because I searched but only iSCSI results.

  Yes, you will be able to configure the San later - by default, the virtual machine will not see the SAn, as it is virtualized by your ESXi host - all the VM will see is a virtual SCSi disk - this doc's guide to vmware for storage - http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-51/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-511-storage-guide.pdf - you can visit the website of HP they might have documentation on configuring P2000 for vSphere -.

• Script to change the subnet and vlan.

  Hello

  Please can anyone help with a script to change the subnet and VLANs on all the esx host in a cluster for the vmotion and management network interface?

  Thank you

  Astra

  I guess it worked because you pasted an out front, so:

  Get-Cluster mycluster. Get-VMHost | Get-VMHostNetworkAdapter | where {$_.} PortGroupName - eq "VMotion"} | {} %
  Game-VMHostNetworkAdapter - VirtualNic $_ - IP $_. IP - subnet mask "255.255.254.0" - confirm: $false
  }

  I guess that makes still out:

  Get-Cluster mycluster. Get-VMHost | Get-VMHostNetworkAdapter | where {$_.} PortGroupName - eq "VMotion"}

  2 vmknis right?

  If Yes, then it should work I think.

• Differences Betweem ESXi and ESX

  Hai,

  I want to know the differences between ESX and ESX? where can get. If they are distinguished by the features that are available are not available.

  Thank you.

  Most of the features are available in available in ESX ESXi. In order to get the full functionality of ESXi, the host must be managed by vCenter Server.

  ESX has a console that is drastically reduced in ESXi. It is actually easier to install and easier to manage ESXi.
