Re: Same MAC address in 2 different VLANs
I think you maybe ok. Ive just looked at my esx config and the esx management interfaces use their own generated macs, not the physical interfaces ones. All the vms obviously use generated macs as well. However I only looked over it at a superficial level. Have you considered using a tap or spare phyical interface on your flex box and not linking it to the network? Thank you, that was a brilliant idea: Flex only needs that one interface, with the specific MAC, exists on the host, it does not specifically try to use that interface for managing licenses, so a tap hanging to nowhere is the solution. Best regards, Olivier On 19 July 2013 10:29, Olivier Nicole olivier.nic...@cs.ait.ac.th wrote: Hello, Could any one comment about the use of the same MAC address in 2 separate VLANs? All my machines are connected to 2 VLANs (one public and one private) with no routing in between the VLANs. I used to run a FLEX license manager to a physical machine. When I virtualized that service, I had to use the MAC address of that physical machine for the virtual machine (FLEX is linked to the MAc address and I coul dnot issue new license as licensed the pproduct is not supported anymore). The virtual NIC that has the old MAC address is connected to the public VLAN. Now I want to reuse the physical machine as a VMware server. Dell nor VMware offer a solution to change the MAC address (like ifconfig em0 link xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx would do). So I plan to connect the NIC with the incriminated MAC to the private VLAN. Most (if not all) my servers are FreeBSD. Most will access the virtual machine running FLEX and may access the VMware server also. The servers are not VLAN aware. Will this be an issue?

That is a novel idea and yes it does have the ability to send a scanned document via email; however, I think that is way more trouble than it is worth.

Do you want to install onto USB, or do you want to install from USB? If you want to install from USB, you could download the memstick image and write to USB stick (raw device) with dd. Directory ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/9.2/ includes a memstick image, FreeBSD-9.2-BETA1-amd64-memstick.img or you can stay with 9.1_RELEASE if you prefer, but get the memstick.img instead of disc1.iso . I have never used Ubuntu, but dd should be a standard part of most any Linux distro.

How to create vlan (four NIC into one) using lagg
Hi, all, I am trying to use lagg to bind four 1Gb NIC into 4Gb one. I was testing this using two machines running FreeBSD 8.2, each of the machine has four 1Gb ethernet card, and connected correspondingly, means: MACHINE1 MACHINE2 em0 -em0 em1 -em1 em2 -em2 em3 -em3 Then I created vlan called 'lagg0' on each machine using: ifconfig lagg0 create ifconfig lagg0 laggproto lacp laggport em0 laggport em1 laggport em2 laggport em3 ifconfig lagg0 1.1.1.1/24 ifconfig lagg0 up And do this on MACH2 too, only change IP from 1.1.1.1 to 1.1.1.2. But I cannot ping each other, since none of the link is both active: MACHINE1 # ifconfig lagg0 lagg0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST metric 0 mtu 1500 options=219bRXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4,WOL_MAGIC ether 00:08:9b:d4:91:64 inet 1.1.1.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 1.1.1.255 media: Ethernet autoselect status: active laggproto lacp laggport: em3 flags=1cACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING laggport: em2 flags=18COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING laggport: em1 flags=18COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING laggport: em0 flags=18COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING MACHINE2 # ifconfig lagg0 lagg0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST metric 0 mtu 1500 options=219bRXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4,WOL_MAGIC ether 00:08:9b:d3:72:60 inet 1.1.1.2 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 1.1.1.255 media: Ethernet autoselect status: active laggproto lacp laggport: em3 flags=18COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING laggport: em2 flags=1cACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING laggport: em1 flags=1cACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING laggport: em0 flags=1cACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING So, em3 is active on MACHINE1 but not active on MACH2, while em0-em2 are active on MACH2 but not on MACHI1.

This is a CD-ROM image. Please try again using the 'memstick' image instead, whicih should be available in the same place you for the ISO image for the CD-based installation and have a name like this: FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img This should be bootable if you copy it directly to a USB stick with at least 733 MB of disk space.
