    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;this is the default behaviour when two VMs are on the same portgroup and in the same VLAN.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Traffic won't leave the vSwitch in this case.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you want the VMs only isolate the VMs from the outside network, you can create a new portgroup for them and don't add any physical network adapters to that portgroup.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;That way the VMs can only communicate with each other.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Tim&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <title>Internal network for guests on the same host?</title>
      <link>https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/Internal-network-for-guests-on-the-same-host/m-p/1397459#M133556</link>
      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Is it possible to set up an internal network so that if VMs A and B are on the same host and A tries to access B (or vice versa), all network traffic will be handled internally by ESXi without needing to go upstream?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
