You can configure only one IP route to a given external network on your V- Switch.

Configuring IP Routing

To enable communications between the V-Switch and IP networks located outside the V-Switch LAN, you must configure IP routing paths for each external network port. The IP route begins with a specified network port on the V-Switch and ends at the external network IP address. Just as each IP address is unique, each IP routing path is unique. There can be only one IP route to a given external network IP address per V-Switch.

In Figure 31, page 68, you have two V-Switches connected to three different LANs (A, B, C). In turn, each LAN is connected to at least one external network (D, E, F).

On V-Switch 1, network ports Eth1 and Eth2 can both access Network D:

Only one of these paths can be configured for V-Switch 1.
