I had a thought. Should I just terminate the datacenter Internet feed in the switch on the Public VLAN?

Hi,

I'm setting up CS 4.1.1 in a datacenter and have been assigned a single
/27 block of public IPs.

I'm trying to determine the best way to configure the networking,
routing and switching for the TOR.

On XenServer hosts, I plan to share Public and Guest traffic on one
interface with separate management, primary and secondary storage
interfaces.  So I calculate I need to configure VLANs for Guest and
Public similarly to this image:

I have the traditional (multi-port) router and (L3 Cisco) switch at the
TOR with the CS physical networks connected to the switch.

How should I configure the switching (VLANs), routing and public IP
address assignments?  Should I assign all public IPs to the upstream
port on the router and forward them in?  Should I get another /30 from
the DC and route the /27 in?

I plan to bring additional guest networks into the router via VPNs and
P-t-P circuits later.  For now, I only have one guest network coming in
on a separate router port.

I don't have much practical experience with VLANs in Cisco switches.

Thanks in advance,

Gene
