ESX 4 and Vlan / 8021.q How to create a Vlan per machine to a netgear GS724Tv3
Hi Guys
I have a simple question that I cannot get my head around, - Picture this
A ESX server with 3 VM's on it All going through the same nic to a netgear GS724T.
On the switch I have a Firewall that can talk to each of the VMs (All different subnets)
On the switch another server that I want to talk to only one server.
My understanding is to create a port trunk on the ESX server and then enable taging on the switch etc .
How ? Thoughts ??
TIA

I got it
The port that needs to be part of several Vlans (ESX server) is setup as a trunk (Tagged) the port for the server that needs isolation is untagged,
Then created a new port group on the ESX Vswitch with the right vlan - and wholla !
Funny though that NEtgear support could not even help !
Thanks Lads !

Any chance of a step by step please ? This is doing my head in.....
I have created a Vlan (ID2) containing ports 1 and 2 and 3 (Untagged) Vlan 1 (Default contains all ports Untagged). -
port 3 is ESX
Port 2 is this other server
and port 1 is the FW
Hopefully that will be that on the vlans ? how do I do the ESX part ??
