esxi Network Setup 4 and esxi 5.5 the same

Hello

We have a customer with the following network configuration (see picture). They run ESXi and vCenter 4.0.

We have added a new separate system with ESXi and vCenter 5.5 and to set up the network, the same.

My question is this service console, I can't to be able to set this up, it's that are not part of ESXi 5.5?

If you see the other image, I configured 2 one for management and one for vMotion VMkernel Port, they will be on the same network.

Would that be correct?

I don't mind not the network adapters are not connected again... and another thing must use active active alle 4 cards?

Since the release of vSphere 5, he didn't there no Service Console more... the management can be performed via VMkernel port with active management traffic.

About vmnic design, my recommendation is:

vSwitch0:

For vMotion PortGroup - vmnic0 Active and standby vmnic3

PortGroup management - vmnic3 Active and standby vmnic0

vSwitch1:

PortGroup for VMS - vmnic1 Active and active vmnic2
