VLAN

Hi,

first of all, sorry is this isn't the correct forum.

In my office there are some VLAN (one VLAN for each floor). My VmWare hosts are in one of them and all my VM have IP's that are inside of one VLAN, but now I want that a new VM has one IP from another VLAN because some workstation have to access to this new IP.

How can I do to this new VM has a IP from one VLAN?

Thanks

Hi, welcome to the communities,

I moved your post to a more suitable forum.

You have to create a new VM Port Group on your vSwitch and configure it for the new VLAN ID.

Then you can select this VM Port Group in the network adapter settings of the VM.

Regards

Tim

Hello,

as commented before, you should configure the physical switch port(s) (where the vmware host(s) is/are connected) in trunk mode and re-configure correctly the the virtual switch associated with the virtual machines.

I would recommend you to check this vmware's kb about the topic (check the "virtual switch tagging VST" section).

Best regards,

Pablo
