Hi guys,
I'm trying to create a new vswitch within my vmware infrastructure that will be for a different vlan. My goal is to move VMs over to this new network as I re-IP them to non-overlapping IPs with our parent company we are integrating with. The switch config is the same as the the VMs are currently on, and the Nexus config (SVI, addition of vlan to trunk interfaces between devices) is already done. I can reach the SVI of the new vlan on the nexus equipment, but when I moved the VM over to the new vSwitch and change the VM's IP, we lose all connectivity until reverting. We have nexus 7ks as our core, with 5ks as the distribution. Something weird I've noticed is once the VM is moved over to the new switch and IP, the mac address of the VM does not show up on the Nexus 5Ks, which are connected to the physical ESXi boxes.
Any idea what could be wrong? I've confirmed that the setup on the Nexus equipment is the same as the old vlan I am copying. I feel like something fundamentally has to be wrong for the MAC to no longer show up on the adjacent physical switch.
Thanks for any help!
