command line change VLAN ID in virtual switch

[rik1976]

The trunk port on our core switch has been changed. So now I can not reach my esx server in virtual center.

I would like to change the VLAN ID of the service console on the virtual switch to 500.

Does anyone knows which command I have to use.

thx

go to the server and type: esxcfg-vswitch vSwitch0 -p "Service Console" -v 500

You will need to use Esxcfg-vswitch -v to change the vlan, use the following page for a good guide on how to use this...
