First of all hi to everyone.
I am a bit stuck and sometimes it is best to ask for help instead of screwing up everything. I am more into vmware and AD than ip routing, vlan and switch config so sorry for my ignorance.
A bit of background : 3 ESXi 5.1 all connected to a powerconnect 6248 for the virtual machine & management network which is also our main switch. No vlan or fancy config on that switch. There is also an iscsi storage for the vm on an isolated network that I managed to configure by the book with the help of many of you and your precious posts. Tkx a lot btw :)
We are implementing vmware view with quite a lot of floating desktops and I would like to have them in a separate & dedicated range 192.168.30.0/23 for exemple. I have already created that new scope on the DHCP and I would need to know how to configure our main switch in order to have all vdi getting their ip from that new range from the dhcp that is on our main range.
So far it is not working and as I don't have a lab to test, it is straight on production so a do it right the first time.
I assume I have to create a new portgroup on the hosts with a given vlan id. Assign the same vlan id on the switch ports of the powerconnect where the phical nics of that portgroup are connected but when it comes to Tagged, Untagged, Trunk, Access and General, ip helper .. I get very very confused.
Any help and advice on how to proceed would really be welcome as I need to move on and get this new scope up and running.
Cheers
Eelm
