Thank you Kelven, I'm trying this out now. I had a similar setup before, but the network offerings would not show up in cloudstack UI, I will try through APIs next.

It is feasible, if purely from CloudStack API perspectives, following steps may help you get there (I didn't really try it in CloudStack UI though) 1) Create 2 physical networks, in each of these physical networks, add a guest traffic label, label it to vSwitch2, also tag the physical network, say, one as DEV, the other one as MGMT 2) Create 2 network service offering, tag the service offering the same as corresponding physical network, so that when a network is created, it can direct CloudStack to find the right physical network configuration for mapping 3) Create 2 shared networks, specify the VLAN you are going to assign along with a corresponding network offering 4) Deploy guest VM into the selected shared network Kelven On 11/6/12 2:30 PM, "Musayev, Ilya" <imusa...@webmd.net> wrote: >I promise to document this setup if I can get this to work successfully >- so other folks like myself don't have to ask the same question twice >:) > >-----Original Message----- >From: Musayev, Ilya [mailto:imusa...@webmd.net] >Sent: Tuesday, November 06, 2012 5:23 PM >To: cloudstack-dev@incubator.apache.org >Subject: Advanced network setup with CS and VSphere 5 - is this feasible? > >I have a vSphere cluster with 3 nodes I'd like to add to CS > >Since we are not using AWS like structure and more of an old fashioned >typical corporate setup, I'm curious if its at all doable. > >My Setup as follows: > >3 vSphere hypervisors with following network setup > > vSwitch0 - 2 NON-TRUNKED NICs associated > Management Network No VLAN TAGGING IP >Range 10.0.1.x/24 > > vSwitch 2 - 2 TRUNKED NICs associated > DEV VLAN VLAN TAG ID 1000 > IP Range 10.0.2.x/23 > > MGMT VLAN VLAN TAG ID 1100 IP Range >10.0.1.x/24 (same as above vSwitch0) > >The above is a sample VSPhere architecture I have for Developers >Cluster, > >The goal is to be able to deploy VMs on both networks - DEV VLAN and >MGMT VLAN by using Projects or Domains and associating it with CS TAGs. > >I tried diving in to advanced networking, but cant seem to get it to >work right no matter what I try.
