We are in a special HW-situation with a ESXi server having enough nics for all external connections. We want to save space, energy etc by not use an external physical switch. We will use point to point cables to the very few external devices. Problem is that some devices should be on the same ip-subnet and also communicate with the same vm in the host. Is there a way to configure a vSwitch for this, two or more physical nics on same vSwitch but not for redundancy purpose? There is no need for the external devices to communicate to each other, they just communicate with the vm in the host
