For our example, we are configuring a HP 2810-48G switch.  These commands should also work with the HP5400zl series.

== Network Overview ==

There are a number of different networks and hosts involved with a traditional Emulab setup.

For servers, we will have three machines hosted on a VMWare server:

 * Boss   hosts the web interface, main testbed logic, and database.
 * Users  exports filesystems and acts as a general login machine.
 * Router routes between the various networks.

We also have on the network:
 * HP 2810 Ethernet Switch Management Interface
 * Dell Remote Access Card for VMWare server
 * VMWare management interface
 * Power Controller (APC7902)
 * Serial Controller (IBM X330 + Obsolete Cyclades multi-port serial card)



== Initial Ports ==

|| Port || Device ||
|| 1      || Uplink to Internet ||
|| 2      || Port for Dell Remote Access Card (DRAC) for the VMWare server (PowerEdge 2950) ||
|| 3      || Trunked port for the VMWare installation on the PowerEdge 2950 ||
|| 4      || APC 7902 Power Controller ||
|| 5      || Serial Controller  ||
|| 6-9    || Control Network ports for our testbed nodes ||

== VLANS ==

|| VLAN || IP Range || Use ||
|| 2002 || Depends (our minibed is behind a NAT on 10.0.23.0/24) || Internet VLAN ||
|| 2003 || 192.168.0.0/22 || Control Network VLAN ||
|| 2004 || 192.168.254.0/24 || Control Hardware VLAN ||
|| 2005 || 192.168.253.0/24 || Users Network ||
|| 2006 || 192.168.252.0/24 || Boss Network ||

== Switch Configuration ==

Here is the configuration from the HP Procurve 2810 at the ISI mini testbed.  Please note that the max-vlans number can be, and should be, increased on switches that are capable of more (5400 series).

== VMWare Network Setup ==

For the minibed at ISI, the VMWare ESXi server is on a single trunked port.
