Hi,
Two other collective nouns for penguins are waddle and raft. A
waddle is a bunch of penguins on land, and is preferred over rookery.
A raft is a group of penguins floating on the surface of water (where they
spend most of their time).

Hi,
A couple of things to keep in mind when you use a VSWITCH.
(1) Whenever possible, couple your Linux guests directly to the VSWITCH so
the IP Addresses are all registered on the VSWITCH LAN segment. If the
VSWITCH knows all of the IP Addresses in use you can run in the default
