I am stragle to get this setup done from more then a year !

now i am testing same thing with esxi 5 ,

i want 3 guest on vmware esxi ,i have 6 gb ram on the system and i am planning to use 1.5*4 (esxi ,utm,windows,linux) i have 1 netgear gs108t switch which i 1gb managed switch but i have 41rq system which has only 2 (pci slot) -2 intel pro 1000 (detected by vmware) and 1 with rtl8196 card/onboard ,hdd is 160 gb and i have another 1 8 port normal switch

utm is vmware certified and support vlan

i have many question

1) do i use 3 card (lan,wan,dmz),if i use this 3 card what kind of configuration i have to do on vmware
2) do i have to use 1 card with vlan within vmware or what ?
3) how many vnic and vswitch i should use

this is a relavent thread

viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2610 but i fail to undersand and configure it with esxi 4.1

thank you !

I'd lean towards a single vSwitch with both Intel cards. Then create 3 virtual machine port groups and assign a different VLAN to each. Configure the switch ports as trunk ports. In this configuration you would also need to add a router to handle traffic between the various subnets, but this could also be a VM.

Sorry ,english is not my 1st lang ,so there might be probelm

i am trying again to explain what is want to get

my new image hope will make it bit more clear

now (today again ) i have installed esxi 5 with sles 11 for vmware and utm software (utm software is vmware certified )

i am also confued which mode of network i should use vgt or est or ????

system have 4 gb ram and 2 intel nics (infact 3 nics 1 dis not detected onboard) what i have posted in image that all thing i want in one box using vmware (do i require more physical nic and ram ?)

all (Trunk,isp,dmz,wireless ap ,lan )is configure on utm

utm will manged wireless ap ,dmz ,and all thing

hope this time you will able to understand
