Hi,

we are hitting the same limitation, except that we can use 10 NICs on VMware.

The fact that we also use the Private Gateway functionality addes another NIC, 
besides the management and outside NIC which is present as well.

I wonder that is the reason for one NIC per tier? Why not just use one outside 
NIC, one management NIC and *one* NIC for the tiers, where the VLANs (or 
whatever isolation method is used) is trunked, for example just using 
subinterfaces and dot1Q tags? This would eliminate this limit for whatever 
hypervisor that supports trunk to it’s guests (I know for sure about VMWare, 
not so much about the other hypervisors).

Regards
Daniel

    Hi Dennis,
    
    Any tier or network which is accessible and part of a VPC requires an 
interface on the VPC Virtual Router.
    
    What you can however do is create separate shared networks and connect 
these as secondary networks to your VMs – these shared networks get their own 
VR.

        Hi,
        
        im using xenserver as hypervisor so im limited to 7 nic's / vm, so the
        router vm cant handle more than 7 nics which corresponds to 7 networks
        inside a vpc. I had created some networks for different drbd and 
corosync
        stuff, they dont need a gateway, dhcp and a router vm. How should a 
network
        offering look like which dont creates a network on the routervm but is
        accessible by the vpc?
