We have 3 VM Dell Host, Equallogic storage, and dell Switch. i am trying to set up VLANs. How many vlan do i need? What i understand is the following:
1. I have to connect SAN with management switch, which is not accessible to rest of the network and it has the ip 172.16.1.1. (vlan 16). this vlan is created on HP Switch.
2. Connect SAN controller 0 and SAN Controller 1 with Dell Switch. here i need VLAN which will be accessible by SAN Switch and VMware host. VLAN 20 is created for this purpose 172.18.32.1. this vlan is created on Dell Switch. This is for ISCSI Traffic.
3. VM Host is connected to Local area networking which is vlan 2. (192.168.32.0/ 24) VM is also connect to Dell Switch for ISCSI trafic.
4. Where should i configure VMotion?
5. How many other vlans are required?
i am attaching the networking
