Hi, Thanks for the suggestions. I will investigate the VLAN 4095 on ESX and the SDN/GRE avenue. Thanks! FG On Tue, Nov 19, 2013 at 5:38 AM, Murali Reddy wrote: > If you can run XenServer on ESXi, there there is 'virtual guest > tagging'[1] where VLAN 4095 lets guest instances to send and rec

If you can run XenServer on ESXi, there there is 'virtual guest tagging'[1] where VLAN 4095 lets guest instances to send and receive tagged traffic on to physical network. Perhaps you can try creating a network with 4095 VLAN tag from CS and spin up XS VM instances. You can do it on XenServer as w

You can't pass the tags in. Perhaps you can use SDN (GRE tunnels) for the inner CloudStack? On 11/15/13 10:01 PM, "Francois Gaudreault" wrote: >Yes. We want to be able spin XS within CloudStack. We also need those XS >to >consume VLAN tags to do advanced networking (kind of CS inside CS). Lets >

Yes. We want to be able spin XS within CloudStack. We also need those XS to consume VLAN tags to do advanced networking (kind of CS inside CS). Lets say we do have devs with ambitious needs :) Francois On 2013-11-15 9:46 PM, "Chiradeep Vittal" wrote: > You want to pass the vlan tags into a VM th

You want to pass the vlan tags into a VM that is actually a XenServer? On 11/14/13 3:02 PM, "Francois Gaudreault" wrote: >Is there a way to assign a trunked interface to a VM running in CS? Like >assign the entire guest interface. We have a use case where we need to run >XenServer hosts within a

Is there a way to assign a trunked interface to a VM running in CS? Like assign the entire guest interface. We have a use case where we need to run XenServer hosts within a cloudstack managed infra. Thanks! Francois
