Vmware Machines in a DMZ
I would like to know if I need to put some VM machines in a DMZ (between 2 physical firewall appliances), then do I need to put a physical ESX server in the DMZ , or there is another way to do that ?
Thank you

one place where i was recently, we had the dmz vlan accessible from the esx host and whatever guests we were putting there, just selected the adapter for that vlan
I would never put a ESXi Host Management Network on a DMZ.
But ESXi hosts can Host VMs, in a DMZ, with correct networking.

Just run the Cat5/6 cable to the switch in DMZ on one end and the Nic of ESX server on the other end ?
If My ESX host has 2 or more physical Nics, can I plug one of them to the switch in DMZ and leave others plugged to the switch inside the Network ?
Yes, but then, you have instroduced a single point of failure, with only a nic per vSwitch, you should have at least two!
