Hi All,
We have several ESXs with either classical vSwitches or dVswitches. Each of them have several physical ports (classical NIC teaming configurations, all cards are active). Different VMs are connected to those switches (one vnic per VM).
Is there a way to identify which physical port every single VM is connected to? Of course, I have no access the physical switches...
Thanks for your advices.
Franck
you can this output in esxtop command (press 'n') in vSphere 4. thanks
as far as I know - NO, but If you would take a look on physical switch configuration (mac table) then you would see on which port which VM MAC is plugged.

If you are using dvwitches then i beleive you can click on the vm in the dvswitch configuration and it will highlight the physical nic it is using.
Don't forget to leave points for helpful/correct posts.

offcourse the esxtop output will tell you the physical name not the physical switch port(which you can anyway get from the CDP output). thanks
Thank you Harish. Shame this information is not available in version 3.5 ...
Kind regards
