  Hello

  What is the best practice for setting of networking for VMware VDI with an EMC SAN deployment? About going to expand to 200-250 machines VDI.

  Should I have 3 VLAN:

  1 - network management

  2 - VMotion

  3 - traffic (VDI) virtual machine

  or can I setup it up like

  1 - management / vMotion

  2 - traffic Virtual Machine

  Thank you!

  If you speak only of VLAN that yes the three should be on the VLANS separated.

  Network configuration / routing / two network interface cards / NAT - leased / dedicated Dell R210 running VMware ESXi 5.1.0 build-799733

  Hello

  I'm trying to understand how to configure a dedicated server of Dell R210 rented running VMware ESXi 5.1.0 build-799733

  This dedicated server is rented www.online.net and sits somewhere in France. One of its network adapters have an IP public 62.210.177.20x. The other NIC is here, but I do not understand how it is configured. According to the www.online.net portal, the other NETWORK card has or should have an IP 10.90.116.20x. And I am obviously set up is to have some virtual machines running and be able to access the Internet. I have access to the console of the server Dell through iDRAC and since I could see, one of the network adapters in the IP is 62.210.177.20x defined, and the other has been shown out of service. I managed to make it appear the other interface but I cannot find anywhere how to assign the IP address 10.90.116.20x to this 2^nd network adapter. But then again I don't even know if I should or if I need to assing a IP address to this 2^nd network adapter. What is the cable connected even for this 2^nd NIC? I do not know. Should it be - I'm not either. I don't know French and manuals/instructions on www.online.net are in French. I can try an online translator, but I don't think that what I'm looking for is explained. How do I get this set up? I have to do something about the ESXi on the server console? This interface 2^nd should be in place, or it must be down as if it was originally? Yesterday after watching someone videos on YouTube, I added the second virtual switch and moved the virtual hosts of this switch 2 and he entrusted the 2^nd NIC. But that 2^nd NIC had a red X next to it probably indicating that it was disconnected the 2^nd form virtual switch. Today and now I have managed to access the ESXi console server through iDRAC, I bring the 2^nd NIC, and now both network adapters are assigned to the virtual switch 1^st . But I think that a NIC should be attributed to a single switch and the other card NETWORK on the 2^nd switch. I'm just a desktop guy with enough knowledge to be dangerous J if you / someone put in steps how and where to set them up it... PLEASE

  Thanks in advance

  Network configuration

  • VMware vSphere Hypervisor is an "operating system" for pure virtualization and support NAT or routing. Therefore, only a real bridge configuration can be used.
  • To use a subnet additional IP must be configured as a router VM.

  If I understand the above, I need to show some VM and set up as a router? If the virtual machine that will act as a router must have two network interfaces, where it is connected to a switch and the other to the other switch network card. Am I do? The YouTube video that suggested, but I thought that maybe / somehow ESXi can route packets between the two network cards, but from what I read, ESXi can route packets. Do I need to order an additional / extra / 2nd IPv4 address so that it can be assigned to the interface of the router?

• Networking question in VMware Workstation / nested ESXi network configuration problem

  Hi guys,.

  I am trying to set up a virtual lab, I setup a domain, a vcenter server and up to 1 ESXi host controller.

  I am really struggling with the network aspect in establishing a vmnic for storing shared, please see the attached screenshots and a few questions:

  1. Is a vmnic a real network map? or vmnic correspond to "network adapters" that you put in place since the setting of your virtual machine?

  I followed a tutorial and implement 3 NICs on the ESXi host, in Bridge mode, I tried this in my configuration of vmworkstation and I lose the connection to my server vcenter to the ESXi host.

  See screenshot attached to how I configured my ESXi host, screenshot is called 'screenshot2esxihost network', I run got each of the maps defined on NAT network.

  

  See also the screenshot of how I have my configuration of network settings in my VMWare Workstation, screenshot is called "screenshot1. the tutorial does not show how it has its editor of the virtual network configuration, but it puts its ESXi host NICs in BRIDGED mode, and I'm guessing that you can set this time within the virtual network adapter. If someone could tell me what changes should I make in there and on the network cards in my ESXi host, which would be really useful.

  

  My domain controller, server ESXi hosts and vcenter are currently on the 192.168.86 range, which currently stood at NAT

  See also a screenshot from the vsphere client - I don't see a vmnic "vmnic0", my goal is to be able to add a "vmnic2" for a separate storage network.

  

  any help would be received with gratitude, I VCP510 review at the end of the month and really hope to be able to get my lab setup as soon as possible.

  The vmnic is the rising 'physical' of an ESXi host. So with the 3 network cards that you configured for the host in VMware Workstation you will see under "Network adapters" and you can use them to vSwitches in the section "network".

• VmWare Workstation 6.5.1 - local network configuration problem

  Hi guys!

  I have a server with 2 lan card hardware. First of all in the DMZ (10.10.10.X) and the second in LAN (192.68.100.X)

  I started 3 virtual machine with Windows 2003 server.

  SERVER (PDC): 1 Lan (in Lan) cards

  SERVER B (SQL): 2 Lan (Lan 1, 1 private SERVER C network) card

  C (WEB) SERVER: 2 lan card (1 in the DMZ, in private network with SERVER B 1)

  I create 1 BRIDGE with VMNet0, 1 lan private VMNet2

  The problem is when I put the lan card 2 in the same group lan becouse ServerB VMNet2 not ping server C (I test the ping with the installation of DHCP and the static IP... but nothing!)

  What I see, your DMZ network is connected to VMnet2:

  Regarding your screenshot of the VMWare Virtual Network editor VMnet2 is connected to the Broadcom and your first post regarding your host has a NETWORK card in the local network (192.168.100.0) and the other in the demilitarized zone (10.10.10.0). --> VMNet2is is connected to your local network or demilitarized zone (that is why I needed the ipconfig host as well, but you don't post it).

  I guess the Broadcom's DMZ for now.

  This means that if VMnet2 is considered to be the DMZ with 192.168.200.0 (look at Server C) which do not function as it relates to the Broadcom with 10.10.10.0.

  Server c:

  He must have a card in the demilitarized zone (on the name) who has an IP address of 192.168.200.2. It does not not 10.10.10.x? If this is the adapter that uses VMnet2 which does not work.

  ServerB:

  Server B seems to have the correct IP addresses, but it has no way to reach C because it has no address of 192.168.200.x.

  If you really want to have a private connection (no DMZ) between B and C, private by VMnet1 card and use the IPS that VMware provides for this network.

  I guess you want like this:

  LAN (192.168.100.0) - B - VMnet1 (private/host-only/192.168.200.0)---C---DMZ (via VMnet2 jumpered to Broadcom 10.10.10.0)

• VLAN again added, problems detected on guests during the detection of new network configuration

  Hi all

  I started facing a strange problem trying to use a new VLAN configured in my vCenter environment...

  Basically, my system 'fight' to identify the new network label (VLAN) configured, leaving systems disconnected from the local network.

  This condition disappears only when I change the VM touched, assign a label of different network (VLAN), apply the changes and restart the process by configuring the new VLAN return.

  We will use an example to explain better:

  • I have a named Windows Server/Workstation VM: VM1
  • I have 2 VLANS configured in vCenter: VLAN50 and VLAN70

  VM1 is sitting on the VLAN50 and has the static IP address configured.

  I start the migration of the machine to a VLAN different, by editing the network settings of the operating system (IP, MASK, GW, DNS entries...) and replace the label of VM1 VLAN70 network.

  At this point, the machine NIC shows as if it could not connect to what in the network, although it is configured accordingly in order to communicate in the new subnet.

  I have change the VM again and change the label of a network VLAN different from VLAN70, click OK. Immediately, I change VM settings to assign in return the VLAN70.

  After that, the operating system recognizes the network successfully and starts working as expected...

  All of my virtual machines use VMXNET3 adapter and my version of vCenter is v5.5 build #2646482

  No idea what might happen?

  Concerning

  We found the problem...

  It was not associated with VMware, but a network configuration problem: (ESXi connected to two switches, one of them with the VLAN configured correctly and the other does not...).

• Network configuration required

  Hello

  in installation guide is no information on the network. I want to know how much bandwidth necessary for data collection.

  Thank you very much

  Sorina,

  I don't know any white paper on the network configuration required for data collection. I worked at Integrien before vmware bought us and nobody DON'T all talked about the record minimum network configuration. I saw him install and run without problems of collection network via a third party and vcenter data with 10,000s objects without a complaint from the network team.

  Can't say it won't happen, but I've yet to see network problems.

• HA installation failure due to a misconfiguration in the host network configuration?

  We have no setup problem on a cluster HA containing 2 ESX 4.0 host. However, after adding a host ESXi 4.1 and configuration HA to contain all 3 hosts, HA shows failure due to a misconfiguration in the network configuration for the ESXi 4.1 host host.

  Hello

  Yes, you can mix ESXi and ESX on this same cluster

  1. Check your DNS - should resolve to long and short names of all nodes in a cluster that you
  2. are the new ESXi in the same IP subnet as the older ESX servers?
  3. try to disable and enable HA
  4. Check below link

• HP Envy 5540: Printer Hp Envy 5540 randomly printed the Network Configuration Page

  Hello!

  I bought this printer about a month ago. Set up the connection to the printer wireless with my wifi, and my understanding is that the printer is protected like my wifi and use the same password in order to print something. I kept my printer connected and 'standby mode' since I put in place. The night last at about 23:00 when I was in bed, the printer turned on randomly and printed a "wireless network configuration page" that has had a lot of information, including the IP address and listing my name wifi as well as the names of my neighbors wifi in the surrounding apartments.

  I'm trying to understand why this printed, because I certainly did not do. Anyone have access to my wifi, or has someone may simply try to print something and selected my printer as it should appear on the "list available connections on the computer of anyone, given that the printer is turned on? How could they print this sheet of network configuration if my printer is password protected?

  I'm mostly concerned about someone who has access to my internet if they could print this page somehow, but maybe it happened just when they tried to connect to it, and it did not work while trying to fix MY printer?

  I would appreciate any idea on the issue.

  Thank you!

  Hi @printerprob5540,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I saw your post on how your HP Envy 5540 randomly print a Network Configuration Page. I'm happy to help with this problem!

  I find it very strange considering the only way to print the Network Configuration Page, AFAIK, is with the following steps:

  • Make sure that there are size A4 or US Letter, unused, plain paper in the feeder.
  • On the printer Panel, drag the screen to the left and then press Setup.
  • Touch tools.
  • Drag upward on the screen and then tap Network Configuration report.
  • A Network Configuration Page prints up to three pages of information.

  original title: grafting the internet

  Hi Maureen,

  That your router has security enabled protection?  My guess is it doesn't and it's the way that person uses your wireless connection (like someone to visit with a laptop you could if you configure).

  As a general rule, access to the router is by typing http://192.168.1.1 (or whatever your gateway address) in the address bar of your browser and you will be able to bring up the router configuration settings.  He'll probably want a username and password.  Sorry, I can't help you there because I have no idea what it could be.  Try admin/admin or admin/password or administrator/administrator or administrator/password or admin and no password or admin and no password (the classic default settings).  Your ISP or service of technical assistance of the manufacturer of the router may be able to help put this in place.  After that, how configure security entirely depends on the ISP, the router, the type of operating system you have, the type of internet connection you have and a number of other factors that I have no way to know, even if you told me that information.

  In fact, to see if this applies even, go to the Network Center and sharing, and click on manage wireless connections.  Select and double click on your network.  Click the Security tab and see if it is configured with the entries in the drop boxes first two points in the key with a password applies.  If it does not exist, then there is no security on your wireless router.  If there is, then your network is secure without doubt.

  When you see the active connection, click on start / all programs / accessories / and double click on Control Panel.  Type IPCONFIG/all and see if you can identify this other connection of the computer.  It should provide more information about it for the purpose of identification.

  If your router is not secure, you must fix and this should solve the problem.  If your router is secure, you should change the password/key of the router to see if that solves the problem (and then you will need to change the key to all your wireless computers and devices to match the new).  If it still does not work, then come back and we will come with some other ideas (assuming that the manufacturer of access provider or router cannot help you with this).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
