VLANs
ESXi supports 802.1Q VLAN tagging.
Virtual switch tagging is one of three
tagging policies supported.
Packets from a virtual machine are
tagged as they exit the virtual switch.
Packets are untagged as they return
to the virtual machine.
Affect on performance is minimal.
ESXi provides VLAN support by
giving a port group a VLAN ID
