A.2.2.2 Ethernet Networks

You will configure all of the networks described in this section with the attributes listed in Table 17 (page 236).

For each Ethernet network:

•The network name indicates the purpose of the network and enables users to search and filter by networks with similar names and purposes.

•The VLAN ID in the network name enables users to determine the VLAN ID of the network without having to look it up.

Table 13 Networks for vMotion and virtual machine management

Name	VLAN ID	Notes
esxi mgmt 1131	1131	This is the boot network that includes the PXE server.
esxi vmotion	1132	This is the network used for live migration of VMs (virtual machines).
