One of the features of Hyper-V is VLAN support. This is a little bit confusing - so let me explain how it works. For every virtual network adapter you connect to a virtual machine you can specify a VLAN ID to be used by that virtual machine. In order for this to work you need: - A physical network adapter that supports VLANs.
- A physical network adapter that will accept network packets with VLAN IDs already applied (not all network adapters support this).
- To configure your switch to allow network traffic on the physical port for the VLAN IDs that you want to use inside virtual machines.
