What knobs are available for configuring the IP Addresses of VMs in vsphere, without NSX, as compared to with NSX? I see in my VSphere clusters that

  • VMs have multiple IPs
  • These presumeably are randomly assigned by a DHCP host somehow

Is there a way to influence or lock down a specific IP for a VM in vsphere, or should we use nSX for this kind of behaviour?

You can assign ip addressing configuration to virtual machines the same as you would for physical machines; either static assignments or DHCP assignments. NSX isn't required.

  • for IPAM and IP subnet management - how is this handled with vsphere ? Presumably it creates its own subnet and tracks it somehow ? – jayunit100 Apr 11 '20 at 04:53
