Summary

In this chapter, you learned:

  • Logical networks allow different types of network traffic to be separated onto different VLANs or physical networks.

  • Logical networks are defined in a particular data center, and assigned to one or more clusters for specific uses.

  • VM Networks can be used by virtual machines directly, and a Linux bridge is used by the host to connect virtual machines on a VM Network to one of its network interfaces.

  • Once a logical network is assigned to a cluster, it must also be associated with a specific network interface on a host so that it can be used.

  • Network labels can be used to automatically assign logical networks to network interfaces on hosts.
