    <description>&lt;P&gt;I am supposed to design a network configuration for VMware ESXi host for my school project.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;One of the requirements stated was&lt;/P&gt;&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Company policy states that all VMkernel network traffic must not be on the vSwitch as Virtual Machine network traffic&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;P&gt;Does anyone know what this statement means?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi, you can create different vSwitch and assign different uplinks of the host so that entire traffic will be isolated from VM traffic&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;In ESXi you have two types of port groups.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;VMkernel port groups - used by ESXi itself (e.g. Management Network, vMotion, etc.)&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Virtual Machine port groups - used for virtual machine network traffic&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;These port groups can be created on vSwitches, which then usually have uplinks (vmnic) to physical switches.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;What the statement means, is that all port groups are created on a single vSwitch, rather than distributing the port groups on multiple vSwitches. The mentioned requirement is actually the default configuration that you see after setting up an ESXi host.&lt;/P&gt;
