Network problem for Vcenter use

Hello 

 

I have two servers both of them have public IP addresses but they are in a different subnet and I want to use vMotion to migrate some virtual machines from the firs ESXI host to the second one 

I know to do that I have to install vCenter but the question is how do I install vCenter to do that while the both ESXI hosts in different subnet I mean is it possible to do that while the two servers in a different subnet ? 

 

** Please I need your help 

Best Regards

You need just add an IP address which has access to ESXi server.

There is no limitation about adding hosts to vCenter from different subnets.

Also you can migrate virtual machines between two hosts from different subnets.

Thanks Davoud here is my question if I  have an ESXI host with a public IP 30.10.50.112 so wat IP address should I give for the Vcenter itself 

 

I mean If I have it already I mean the ESXI host with this public IP address 30.10.50.112 but you know while installing the Vcenter it will ask me for an IP for the Vcenter itself so what should I do ? 

 

thanks
