Re: Need advise on architecture

So typically what I would do is this:

 

VLAN10 - Management

VLAN20 - vMotion

 

VLAN30 - Network traffic

 

VLAN10 - Management

VLAN20 - vMotion

So as long as you have a manageable switch(like a cisco, brocade, etc...) You can create VLANs on the switch for management and vMotion since this is an internal operation, network users don't need access to this only the hosts.  The NICs  you have designated for management and vMotion will be plugged into those ports.

 

VLAN30 - Network traffic

In your scenerio you can assign every port access to VLAN30 except for management and vMotion.

 

Now you have isolated management and vMotion from your Server and Network users traffic.

 

 

From there you can set the VLAN ID on the vSwitch for Management, vMotion and Network traffic accordingly.  You wouldn't set the VLAN on a specific VMNIC just the vSwitch.
