SRM 5 and VLANs

[kopper27]

hi guys

I am going to implement SRM 5 and my customer just told me that Main Site and Remote Site manage different VLANs.

so what are the options when doing a Failover for the VMs for the IP stuff?

thanks a lot

Yep you can get it to change it via a customisation

got your point...

in that case I have to talk to my customer what he wants to do....

I mean re-iping or use stretch VLANs?

what are your strategies?

thanks a lot

I'm currently doing an SRM roll out for a customer and i've recommended to them that they do the same VLAN on both sides. the customisation works but if it is possible to do the VLAN on both sides then i prefer it.

same VLANs means stretch VLANs?
