Scenario 5 – VLAN Tagging (802.1Q) with a Shared Uplink Set (SUS) with Link Aggregation using LACP (802.3ad) –
VMware ESX 68
Figure 66 - Configuring the ESX vSwitch for Multiple Networks / VLANs. If additional VLANs need
to be supported, simply configure the upstream switch ports for those VLANs, add them to the
SUS and configure the vSwitch as below to support those additional VLANs.
Note: Ensure that the vSwitch Network Failover Detection is set to “Link Status only”. If a VC
module were to fail, this will ensure that vSwitch fails over to the alternate NIC.
