Re: How to configure vlans with vmm

Thanks, that's exactly what I had suspected. In my case, the default
gateway for the virtual machines is a vport I created on the host, and
I will create one switch per virtual machine, so there seems no benefit from
using VLANs.

It sounds like VLAN tagging is useful for when a single router is acting
as the default gateway for virtual machines on multiple separate host.
