Virtual machines are connected to public virtual switches and are not documented.
Description
Discussion Text
Public virtual switches are bound to physical NICs providing virtual machines connectivity to the physical network, whereas connecting physical servers to the LAN usually requires a cable. Virtual network configuration is much easier since once a virtual machine is attached to a virtual switch, these machines are able to send and receive packets. Care must be taken as to which virtual machines have access to the physical network through the public virtual switches. The master configuration file for virtual switches is the esx.conf file.
