Setup the trunk ports on your switch and trunk the vlans to your VMhosts.
Sample setup
2 hosts
2 switches
From each host a trunk cable to SW1 and SW2
4 cables total. Remember you will need other ports on your VMware servers for MGMT vMotion etc.
VMWARE 5.x
New port group
NoVLAN (used for native (untagged traffic) VLAN - not usually ysed)
VLAN type none
VLAN 81 - DMZ (most used)
VLAN type: vlan
VLAN ID: 81
VLAN Trunk (need to do the tagging on the guest VM)
VLAN Trunking
VLAN TRUNK RANE: 150-160
VMware 6.x
Networking
Make a new port group
Hosts -> config -> Networking -> Virtual switch -> Add networking
New vswitch
virtual machine port group for standard switch
Standard vSwitch0 for example need to setup the same on each host so VM's can failover
Distributed switch can be setup at the DC level and is automatically created for you on each host.
Looks like we might need to make a distributed switch
