I have ESXi 5 installed and would like to pass a MagicJack through to a guest - however due to it's bizarre configuration it registers as a usb storage device. Is it possible to pass this through to a guest?
I found this article here:
http://blog.peacon.co.uk/wiki/ESXi_4.1_USB_Passthrough_Non-Working_Devices
It's for ESX v4.1 but it indicates that such devices can be passed through if usb-storage is unloaded. I can't unload it on my end (comes back saying Busy) and I assume it's because ESX is installed to a USB device. Before I go through reinstalling locally does anyone know if this will actually work?
Alternately is there any way to instruct the usb-storage driver to ignore this particular device?
