Port Trunk on Vmware EXSi 5?

Hello

We have vShpere Essentials more here with EXSi 5. I want to trunk 4 times of the network ports for each host. Then on Vmware, we can choose what VLAN belongs to the Virtual Machine.

I think I know how to configure the Cisco switch. Series 4 ports in a trunk and puts all 4 ports in a channel group. I don't know how to configure Vmware. Someone has links to blogs with guides step by step please?

Thank you

Thanks for your help. I'll test this tomorrow (if I have time). I guess it's just a trunk mode standard switchport - nothing special on the cisco switch otherwise?

Thank you

Yes, that's correct.

It is recommended to configure the portfast too.

  • LGS308 Port Trunking Switch Cisco 3650

    I have a Cisco 3650 switch I need to connect my Linksys LGS308 again. I have the port trunking install everything on the side of Cisco, however, I'm not very familiar with trunking on the side of Linksys. What should the configuration looks like on the side of Linksys? Currently, I installed port no. 1 port trunking, and all VLAN belong them to this port. Once I have save the configuration, I can access is no longer the switch. Any ideas?

    The series of LGS Linksys has the same methodology VLAN that Cisco switches series SG.

    Which means a Port marked as port VLAN Trunk will be no marked member (PVID) of a single VLAN and can have several VLAN Tag assigned.

    Example:

    Cisco 3650: Port 1 set as a VLAN Trunk; PVID = 1 and tag VLAN 2,3,4

    LGS308: Port 1 set as a VLAN Trunk; PVID = 1 and tag VLAN 2,3,4; Management VLAN = 1,

  • SLM2024 port trunking

    I have a few SLM2024s that I need to configure it with a few VIRTUAL local networks that allow communication between the VLAN specific.  I think I understand how to do this, with the exception of the connection to the router.  It is my understanding that I need to configure the port on the router as a Trunk port.  However, I can't understand how to do this in the SLM2024.  Not support port trunking?

    Edit: Or I'm completely wrong to think that I have to configure the port on the router as a trunk?  I can set up communication between the VLANS without trunking port?

    Currently I see many MAC beat in the log of the switch.  From my understanding, I expect the MAC address out all ports, because that's what'd ESXi when you use 'route based on the hash of the IP.  I'm worried about the impact this might have on the CPU / switch.

  • Catch 22 - Port Trunk Configurations: how to combine identifiers VLAN native with DHCP (but allows traffic of VM)

    Catch 22 - Port Network Configurations: how to combine identifiers VLAN native with DHCP (but allow the virtual computer)

    I came across a Catch 22.  Maybe someone can restore the directly here.  I found a "witch hunt" for sure.

    It comes with the Ports of junction on the side of the switch of the ESX host network.

    Context:

    Ok. The Setup is a HP Blade C7000 enclosure.  I try to configure ports for switching to the blades.  ESX 3.5 U4 will be installed the BL460cs.  Installation is preferred method: revive unattended.  No problem with the syntax of Kick-Start,

    I am here, it's the side network.

    The problem:

    I find a major complication in that the switch ports must be configured for both traffic Service Console and VMkernel, more Virtual Machine since only two NICs by blade. Not best practices, but we have only two switches Cisco 3020 inside.  The two uplink physical NIC is paired in the same vSwitch.  (No iSCSI does fortunately).

    So the Catch 22 question is as follows:

    If the id VLAN native set up on the switch port, DHCP works of course and the VMware boot loader is able to grasp a binary / packets on the network (FTP Site) and install OK.  But after no installation, no communication with SC unless I set the VLAN id of the SC to '0 '.  The value "4" 0 does not communication, but "40" is the VLAN native.

    If id configuring VLAN native retired from the Switch port, DHCP will not work and host does not have IP address during the VMware boot process.  This is as expected as traffic without label is not assigned an eligible

    VLAN, so no comms.

    The Port of the Switch configuration:

    interface GigabitEthernet0/16

    SERVERNAME description

    switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

    switchport trunk vlan native 40

    switchport trunk allowed vlan 40-254

    switchport mode trunk

    switchport nonegotiate

    Speed 1000

    No cdp enable

    spanning tree portfast trunk

    end

    Summary

    OK, let's summarize where things are and if possible please attach responses to their digital identity.

    (1) is there a way to delete the VLAN tagging altogether side ESX host? Not only the id '0 '. The problem is with clearly with the VLAN native defined as "40".  If "40" IDs specified on the Group of ports for the Service Console, no joy, no comms. If the id of '0' value, capable of ping gateway and communicate on the network.

    (2) what is the problem with the definition of VLAN native as "40" when the config for the switch port is set as VLAN native "40"?  Or if it was a problem?  Both parameters clearly do not work together.

    (3) a switch receiving a unmarked frame it will assign to the VLAN Trunk native. Ok. Trunking bases and why I need a VLAN specified on the port for DHCP native work.  But it seems that since the id VLAN is set manually even as VLAN native, closed communications and no traffic as possible.

    (4) executives made tag 802. 1 q VLAN native?  I think that it is not and this could well be the problem. Since the id VLAN "40" is not labeled, but try to score the side host vSwitch port group.

    Please let me know your thoughts, community and how in general, we are approaching 2 NIC ESX configurations.

    When trunking multiple VLANs, you either have a default VLAN is nothing is tagged, or you don't.  That's what the vlan native to you, it defines which VLAN would be used if no tag is visible on the packets traversing the network.  For servers, if you are marking, then everything has to tag, if you're not marking at the server level, then the port must be either an access port or a VLAN native or default must be set.  I also don't keep your service console the same network as your vm.  Keep this isolated for the security of the network.  If you isolate this VLAN, you can separate and use a single IP address for installation and one for post construction.

    Or, you can provide an IP address during the build.

  • IPS inline & port interface port trunk Switch

    Hello

    Is it possible to configure the IP addresses as the topology below? SW1 and SW2 SPI connection ports is in trunk mode. I would like to configure the IPS in inline mode pairing interface. (not the vlan pairing mode)

    SW1 - IPS - SW2

    Kind regards.

    Yes, this method is fully supported.

    If you want to control all the VLANS with a single virtual sensor, then assign the pair inline interface to the virtual sensor.

    If you want to monitor the VLANS with different virtual sensors, we support groups vlan on this pair of inline interface.

    Do not confuse "inline-pair of vlan" with the "groups of vlan inline on a pair of inline interface.

    The "pair of vlan inline" will pair 2 VLANS on the same interface. When a package arrives in the sensor it will be sent back the same interface with its header vlan has changed.

    The "groups of vlan" on a pair of inline interface don't change headers for VLANs.

    They are only used for virtual local networks, so that the Group of VLAN can then be assigned to a specific virtual sensor.

    You could then take a group of VLANs for your office network employees and assign them to vs0 and take a second group of VLAN for your DMZ and assign them to vs1.

    You can place a vlan unique within each vlan, or you can place several VLANs within each group vlan.

    But it only made sense to have 4 groups of vlan, because you have only 4 virtual sensors on most devices (a bit like the 4215 have 1 virutal sensor so you can make groups of vlan on the 4215).

    I also recommend that you change your virtual sensor and set the Inline TCP Session tracking mode on "Interface and Vlan. In this way the sensor will separately monitor connections on each vlan. This is necessary if a router can route traffic between several VLANs. Without this setting, the sensor will become confused if it sees the same connection of multiple VLANs.

    Best regards, Hendrik

    Disabling protocols spanning-tree on the Procurve ports connected to the ESX host is going to promote a recovery more rapid port. Similarly, running global spanning tree is not recommended if you mix some VLAN iSCSI and data in the same fabric (i.. e. you do not want a STP process to hang storage IO). Spanning tree on your switches, look PVST (or Procurve BPMH) to isolate the STP VLANs unique events.

    In regard to the load balancing is, by default (route based port ID) value algorithm requires less overhead on the ESX hosts.  You may not use LACP on the Provurve the lack of facilities LACP ESX. You must use "route based on the IP hash" sideways ESX and 'static trunks' on the side of Procurve. Unless you have specific reasons why your network need loads this configuration, I'd caution against it for the following reasons:

    (1) IP hash requires thorough inspection of packages by the ESX host, increasing CPU load as load package increases;

    (2) the static configuration puts switch physics rigid and critical ESX host port mapping. Similarly, groups of ports all will fail as the Procurve batteries for management only and won't be on switches 802.3ad circuits Group (i.e. all ports of a group of circuits must be linked to a single switch) - this isn't a limitation of the port ID routing;

    (3) K.I.S.S. love port ID mix of port ID, beacon probe and failover on the port assignments you will get segregation of the raw traffic without sacrificing redundancy - even through switches.

    I hope this helps!

    Hello world

    Hardware wise, I managed a 8540 and a CISCO 5508 wireless lan controllers, so know around the GUI.

    With the release of the VMWare Cisco WLC, it is ideal for a development and test lab environment. However anyone who has used will know it out of the box it does support 2 network cards (one for service and the other for management / data).

    The question:

    How to add additional network ports? In VMWare, it's easy, but how do you get the CISCO config to recognize? I have searched the forums and other areas, but can't seem to find someone who did this.

    See you soon

    Christian

    Hello

    Yes you are right, you can use only 2 network cards on VmWLC. never tried adding other network cards.

    But what you want to do? Is to add a virtual interface on your WLC?

    If so, you can configure your VmWare interface as a trunk and then create all your WLC virtual interface by defining the id vlan. Which makes sense for you?

    Thank you
