Management VLAN tagging/untagg and Jumbo Frame on vmware esxi 640
Hi!
I have standalone vmware esxi running on Dell R640.
I have installed Dell customized 6.7 image on it and its free version. (We may go for VSAN or SAN later on)
I have created Nic teaming with 2 10G interfaces and using Bridge aggregation on HP switch.
Nic Teaming:
Notify switches
Yes
Policy
Route based on IP hash
Reverse policy
Yes
Failback
Yes
I am using VLAN 110 which is my management VLAN. I am using the same VLAN for my idrac as well. Hope thats not an issue.
On Switch side I am tagging my management and other vlans.
In my mind I had this option that I will not tagg the VLAN 110 and use it as
port trunk pvid vlan 110
Whats the best practice? Should I tagged the management VLAN or untagg it?
​
Also my vmware esxi is connected to HP. So I just have to enable jumbo frame on vswitch,vmkernel and on bridge aggregation?
​
Thanks
