Creating the required Logical Networks in Virtual Machine Manager
This recipe provides the steps necessary to create all the required Logical Networks in VMM:
- Hyper-V Host Management: This is used by VMM to communicate with the Hyper-V hosts. For example, when VMM wants a new virtual machine created, it will use this network to communicate with the Hyper-V hosts.
- Hyper-V Live Migration: This is used by Hyper-V for live migration of virtual machines between hosts in a cluster.
- Hyper-V Clustering: This is used by Windows Failover Clustering to maintain the cluster and for the Hyper-V servers to exchange information about the roles within.
- Provider Address Space: This is used by Hyper-V Network Virtualization to host and isolate the tenant networks.
Getting ready
Using the information that you gathered in Chapter 1, Installing Virtual Machine Manager to Prepare VMM, you will be able to configure VMM. For this cookbook, the following IP ranges will be in use:
