<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Thanks Chris. This is the answer I seem to be getting from different avenues. I like to get comments about design and deployment options from various sources.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">The TAC confirmed using all interfaces at once, but cautioned that they are not bonded together. So in my case, I’d have vSwitch zero for management using ge<slot>/2
(external) and vSwitch one for applications using ge<slot>/0 (internal L3 interface).

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I’m still working out how to configure things with respect to what the default gateway of the guest applications would be, but I think I’m there. Essentially
create a loopback and assign that loopback to the ip unnumbered configuration on the UCS-E blade itself. This loopback would be a subnet of, say, /29, with 6 usable ip addresses, one for router, 5 for guests. Overkill, but I can’t go with just two host ip
address that you get with a /30. This loopback would then be the default gateway of the guest application on the same subnet.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I’ve also asked the TAC to confirm what type of port is the external GE connection – L2 or L3 or selectable? I’d want to be able to plug the external GE connection
into an upstream switch configured for the campus ESXi host VLAN.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I’m my experience you will have two internal (router) interfaces to the E140 blade 2/0 and 2/1 plus an external NIC on the card blade itself (I’ve never used

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">So you could definitely setup one NIC as internal and the other as External inside the router and or use the external NIC as well as a backup to switch.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<br>
I'm in the process of designing a new demployment of four ucs-E blades (e140s-m2) into four ISR-G2 routers (2x3945,1x3925,1x2921).<br>
<br>
The question I have is whether or not I can use _both_ an internal interface and external interface to communicate with the blade? External for ESXi and internal for guests (unity express) running on ESXi.<br>
<br>
I'd like to use external for ESXi to stick with existing models but to also remove the router internals as a failure point. The guest itself would need to talk with the router internals to ensure unity express can register with SRST without any infrastructure
requirements.<br>
<br>
What are people's thoughts about this?<br>
