My network knowledge is almost non-existent... What is necessary for: "that will work as long as you have authorized the OSA prot on the switch for VLANs 1, 545, 645 and 745"?
The OSAs are shared across systems... Where can I find examples of this type of thing? Thank you.

Yes, that will work as long as you have authorized the OSA port on the switch for VLANs 1, 545, 645, and 745. In this case, do NOT change the guest IP configuration. The guests will remain VLAN-unaware. If you share the OSA with other LPARs or VSWITCHes, they must also be VLAN-aware and you must specify NOGVRP on the DEFINE VSWITCH.
