Just like VMware, you have create and assign different networks. &nbsp;Refer to article below for setting up live migration network:<br />

Open Failover Cluster Manager and have a look under the Networks node. One can assign LM network priorities there.

Hello,<br />
<br />
I know that it is always recommended to have a separated network interface dedicated to vm migration and heartbeat between the hosts in a hyper V cluster.<br />
<br />
My question is, how does each node of the cluster knows that live migrations will need to be through this dedicated interface?<br />
<br />
Is there extra configuration involve so the nodes are aware? <br />
<br />
Thanks!

Hello,

I know that it is always recommended to have a separated network interface dedicated to vm migration and heartbeat between the hosts in a hyper V cluster.

My question is, how does each node of the cluster knows that live migrations will need to be through this dedicated interface?

Is there extra configuration involve so the nodes are aware? 

Thanks!

How does the nodes in a Hyper V cluster know what network interface to use for Live migration?

Hyper-V is a native hypervisor; it can create virtual machines on x86-64 systems and supersedes Windows Virtual PC as the hardware virtualization component of the client editions of Windows NT. A server computer running Hyper-V can be configured to expose individual virtual machines to one or more networks. Hyper-V Server supports remote access via Remote Desktop Connection. Administration and configuration of the host OS and the guest virtual machines is generally done over the network.

Hyper-V

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.

Virtualization

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
