Configuring network settings on a VMware ESX host


This recipe will guide you through the configuration of a logical network on the VMware host and show you how to view compliance data for the physical network adapters on that host.

To make the host physical network adapters visible to the VMs that need external network access, you will need to assign them to logical networks.

Compliance data specifies whether or not IP subnets and/or VLANs allotted to a logical network are assigned to a host physical network adapter.

How to do it...

Carry out the following steps to associate logical networks with a physical network adapter:

  1. On the Fabric pane in the VMM console, expand Servers, expand All Hosts, and then select the host group where the VMware ESX host resides (for example, VMware Hosts).

  2. On the Hosts pane, select the VMware ESX host, and then click on Properties in the Host tab in the ribbon.

  3. Select the Hardware tab, and select the physical network adapter to be configured in Network Adapters.

    Note...
