Software emulated physical NIC?

[Feihong]

Hi,

I have set up a small lab using workstation 7 with 2 ESXs. As I am installing them on a PC, it only has 1 NIC. Does any one know any software or any way that can emulate additiona NIC so that the ESXs see it as a physcial NIC?

Thank you for your inputs.

Good day Will !

Do you want your physical host (Windows 7) to be seeing multiple networks?

You can add additional NICs to your ESX hosts that make use of the host NIC or create private networks that only the ESX hosts would use.

Can you please clarify further what you are looking to test in your lab?

thanks........Bruce

I was thinking too complicated but forgot about the basis. I have used virtual network editor to achieve what I needed.

Thanks.
