Create a Distributed Switch and Configure Networking
A vSphere distributed switch lets you handle networking traffic for all associated hosts in a data center. After you create a new vSphere distributed switch in PowerCLI, you can add hosts and connect virtual machines to it.
Configure a Distributed Switch
Based on your networking requirements, you can adjust the settings of a newly created or an existing distributed switch.
Migrate Virtual Machine Networking Configuration from a vSphere Standard Switch to a vSphere Distributed Switch
To manage virtual machine networks on a data center level, you might need to migrate existing networks from vSphere standard switches to vSphere distributed switches.
Migrate Physical and Virtual NICs to a vSphere Standard Switch
You can migrate both physical and virtual network adapters to a vSphere standard switch simultaneously.
Migrate Physical and Virtual NICs to a vSphere Distributed Switch
You can migrate both physical and virtual network adapters to a vSphere distributed switch simultaneously.
Configure the Traffic Shaping Policy
You can modify the traffic shaping policy of a port group to limit the bandwidth of the incoming traffic and ensure that enough bandwidth is available for other port groups on the same vSphere distributed switch.
Configure the Security Policy
You can modify the security policy of a port group to enable promiscuous mode, which allows monitoring of the traffic generated by virtual machines.
