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.
Carry out the following steps to associate logical networks with a physical network adapter:
- On the
Fabric
pane in the VMM console, expandServers,
expandAll Hosts
, and then select the host group where the VMware ESXi host resides (for example,VMware
). - On the
Hosts
pane, select the VMware ESXi host and then click onProperties
on theHost
tab in the ribbon. - Select the
Hardware
tab and select the physical network adapter to configure inNetwork Adapters
.
