I need to put Two IPs from two different physical adapters on the same VM.

Hi there,

I have VMWare ESXi 6.0, running three CENTOS 7 VMs on it.  One VM has a private IP on it.  I need to keep the private IP because it needs to reach other IPs on the same private subnet.  Now, I also need to put a public IP on this same VM.  My network architecture requires that this will be put on a different physical adapter. 

I have tried adding the new physical adapter to the existing VSwitch.  When I do this it breaks the existing connection.  I also set up a new Vswitch but I can't figure out how to add to add the existing VM to new Vswitch.

I'd be very thankful for any advice.

Welcome to the Community,

add a second virtual network adapter to the VM, and connect it to the port group on the other vSwitch.

6. Click next > finish and you are done.

Please confirm if that worked.
