The trickiest part is getting all the network info correct each portion of CS.
What tripped my up for the longest time was that the networks must have the same labels as the vswitch names in vcenter. For example admin network has the name: admin_NW for vswitch0 In CS you must give the same name to match vcenter. Also you must set the description label to vswitch0. The same goes for other Networks you may have. The last part that was an issue was you must give a arbitrary vlan range for your guest instances to use. These vlans are used by the CS only and do not need to be configured on your physical or vswitches.
