I wanted to be able to have a trucked connection in my VMware DVS for my New Nutanix Lab. See this Post http://vbrainstorm.com/nutanix-cluster-create-cli/
I setup a dvs port group for my nested Nutanix lab. Titled All.
| General | |
| Name | All |
| Port binding | Static binding |
| Port allocation | Elastic |
| Number of ports | 8 |
| Network resource pool | (default) |
I set it up as vlan trunking.
| VLAN | |
| Type | VLAN trunking |
| VLAN trunk range | 0-4094 |
I had to enable all the security features as follows.
| Security | |
| Promiscuous mode | Accept |
| MAC address changes | Accept |
| Forged transmits | Accept |
next, even although I had followed this guide, since I’m using vlan trunking, I needed to assign vlans within the host and vcm.
open console on the host, login as root and type in the following:
- #ovs-vsctl set port br0 tag=idhere
then you need to connect to the cvm that is running on that host and configure it as well.
- #ssh [email protected]
login with cvm defaults.
- #change_cvm_vlan idhere
I used vlan 70.
