Hello, I need help with setting up Cisco 1000v Switch in vmware vCenter.
What i want to do with it:
My goal is to run TRILL (Cisco's FabricPath) between few (let's say 4) switches to verify my simulation model of TRILL.
Current state
I have been able to create esxi (5.5) server as a virtual machine and connect it to another virtual machine that runs vCenter server(5.5).
I deployed Nexus .ova file into vCenter.
Now that Nexus1k is running as standard virtual machine (VM), I would like to add interfaces so I could connect it to another VM of Nexus1k.
These VMs would run TRILL between them.
Questions:
When I add new interface in System Settings (for the VM) how can I utilize it inside Nexus?
Could you describe procedure how to do it, or point me to document where I could find it.
I Believe that I do not need to deploy it as a distributed virtual switch inside VMware to run TRILL.
Thank you!
