HP Virtual Connect 1Gb Ethernet Cookbook

Scenario 6 – VLAN Tagging (802.1Q) with Multiple Shared Uplink Sets (SUS) and Link Aggregation using LACP (802.3ad) –
VMware ESX 81
Figure 81 - Configuring the ESX vSwitch for Multiple Networks / VLANs. If additional VLANs need
to be supported, simply configure the upstream switch ports for those VLANs, then configure the
vSwitch as below to support those additional VLANs.
Note: As this Scenario is based on an Active/Active configuration, to ensure that ALL VMotion
traffic between servers within the enclosure is contained, on each server edit the VMotion
vSwitch properties and move one of the Adapters to Standby. This will ensure that ALL VMotion
traffic will occur on the same Virtual Connect module.
