UCS Management console KVM IP pools and port group configuration

[hackensackumc01]

Hello Cisco community.

Can someone help to figure out better design for KVM and CIMC IP pool configuration?

Currently, I bumped into issue with running out of available IP's for KVM and CIMC consoles in UCSM.

At this moment we have direct connection (no port groups or VLAN) to UCSM management console via /24 subnet, but because all IP's already in use by our blades we looking change configuration design to extend amount of subnets available for KVM and CIMC.

Is UCSM port can be configured as port group to support VLAN's, in order to routing multiple subnets via interface and make multiple subnets available for managing blades.

Thanks,

Stas
