Thanks, Jimmy.

Does [1] help? Incase multiple customers need it, you will have to select 
bypass VLAN ID/range overlap during network creation so to allow bridging VMs 
from different customers. You may also want to check that this VLAN ID doesn't 
come under the VLAN ranges defined under the zone as dynamic range of VLANs for 
the guest if the traffic flows on the same physical network.
And as an admin you can also create these networks and assign to customer 
domains and accounts so that they can use it.

[2] can also fit to your case but I haven't tried this yet but AFAIK only works 
with Security group enabled zone.

Hi Jayanth,

I meant L2 in this case, so pure L2 VLAN, say for example I have VLAN 10 on the 
physical network which has a public range on a router, and would like to share 
this between customers. Or Customer A has VLAN 20 as like a private LAN network 
on the physical network but has a partnership with a company company that also 
needs access to this VLAN 20.

I hope that makes it more clear as to what I mean

Hello Jimmy,
Please be specific about the term VLAN. Do you mean the term VLAN for an 
isolated network in CloudStack which is dedicated to one of your customers? Is 
the Guest network isolation VLAN?
Or, are you trying to place multiple customers into the L2 network?

Will the example below help?
- A shared L2 network for multiple customer VMs who would like to assign as 
secondary NIC for some purpose.

Thanks,
Jayanth

Hi,

We have a lot of big ones but also some smaller customers, who do not have 
their own vlan but are part of a bigger IP pool, or customers who share an 
internal vlan.

How can we set this up on ACS? I can give a domain/user a vlan of course and 
that works perfectly fine. But then I can’t use it for anything else.
I can give the VLAN to admin but then a customer can’t use it.

Also (was wondering this) , is there as admin a way to login as the customer? 
For for example the above vlan way in case a customer asks us to create a vlan 
for him.
