We have a 3750x switch stack. We installed it to replace a failing network infrastructure. Right now, all but a few of the ports are access ports. We have a portchannel setup to connect two offices.
All of our access devices are currently on one big vlan. We'd like to break this vlan up by putting certain devices into specific vlans. There are a lot of nodes on our network. We have tested setting ports to other vlans and getting the routing up and running and everything works.
A few problems have arisen.
1) What happens when a VMWare image is hosted on a machine, connected to a vlan, but it's on a different subnet.
example: we have several users that have VMware fusion installed. They use a different subnet for the servers they install inside of vmware (so two ip subnets would appear on that link). The servers have licensing assigned by IP so they can't be easily changed
2) How do you guys usually handle situations where a user moves their computer to say a common area (boardroom, lounge etc) but wish to remain on their vlan? (no wifi yet)
Thanks ahead of time!
