Hmm, the only problem there is that vSphere doesn't allow you to specify a VLAN ID higher than 4094. I haven't tried creating a VLAN Trunk and then specifying the range of VLAN IDs I'll be using. I'll play around with that and see how that works.

 

 

When I create the VLANs on the Big IP appliance, I'm confused what is meant by "tagged, available, and untagged" in reference to the interfaces. If I'm going to create a VLAN (let's call it VLAN11) and tag it with "11" as the number, do I then put all three interfaces in the "tagged" column?
