VLAN issue between two ESXi hosts

pwojtachnio

Level 1

Hello

I have two VMs based on VMware and some VLAN configuration

 

VM1 - VLAN 130 on ESXi01

VM2 - VLAN 135 on ESXi02

 

Per exemple, a machine from the ESX1 vlan 130 can't ping an another VM in the ESX2 vlan 130. But if I move the second VM to the ESX1, it's working.

From VM1 im going via vSwitch on VLAN 130 via ESXi01 box, which that ESXi is going via vmnic11 on port Vethernet910 on FABRIC

Hi,

 

To add VLANs, you need to go to the LAN tab and create them and after that, add them to the vNIC of the blades you want to pass traffic for that/those VLAN(s).

Did you set up a Native VLAN in UCSM?

Are both, ESXi01 & ESXi02 using the same Fabric Interconnect to pass traffic?  If one host is passing traffic through A and the other through B, the traffic will need to travel to the upstream switch to be switches cause the fabrics do not switch traffic between them.

Try the commands below and paste them here:

*show service-profile circuit server X/Y  << chassis/server in question

*connect nxos a|b   << first try "a" then "b" and the output of the below command for both

*sh pinning border-interfaces

*show platform soft enm inter info vlandb id #   <<<< "#"meaning the vlan number
