It is recommended to create layout of how you believe CloudStack IP allocation will take place, hence a quick write up of what networks get what assignments is very helpful. In my case, i wanted to be able to deploy DEV and MGMT VMs on vSwitch2 that uses vlan VLAN tagging, while CS Managment/Storage VMs would reside on vSwitch0 (w/o VLAN tag). If you would like to move your CS Management VMs to VLAN TAGed tag'ed network - you will need to confirm that you meet minimum requirements for CS described in Setup Guide and alter the CS Global Settings to change the default portgroup name "Management Network" for vmware - if its different.
Network we need to define before we begin:
