Deployment of V2110 on VMWARE ESXi problem: Vlans

[LeoP1]

We are working on a deployment of 2 new V2110 controllers on customer's ESXi 5 infrastructure, but even configuring with an old guide from the KB, we can't make the traffic of tagged VLANs to reach the VMs. The VMWare support checked on and told us it should be OK, but isn't working. Is there any guide or tip to make it work?

Thank you guys!

The customer re-checked all configs and now is working!

Hi Doug,

I'll check it with the customer and let you know...

Thanks for your usual help! Good to work with you guys at GTAC!

Do you have the Vswitch (Security Tab) promiscuous mode enabled (Checked and Accept)? Also per Vswitch you need to select 4095(all) under the General Tab.

I think Doug is right. In most cases only the disabled promiscuous mode cause this failure.

You should follow the instructions in the "Enterasys Wireless Virtual Gateway 2110 Installation Guide". Maybe Doug could send you a download link.
