Experts !

I am evaluating SCVMM 2012 R2 along with HyperV. The aim is to provide a self service portal for each departments so that they can take care of provisioning and management of their VM. Each department will be using a dedicated VLAN which will be in the TRUNK. I am planning to make a Priviate Cloud for each group.

Group1 - Private Cloud 1 - VLAN101

Group2 - Private Cloud 2 - VLAN 102

How should we enforce the VMs deployed by each group gets the right VLAN tagging based on the VLAN assigned for them?

At this moment, I dont see that self service user or even an ADMIN get an option to assign a specific VLAN while deploying from tem

First you create a logical network for each network/VLAN you will use. In the logical network you will specify IP Subnet and VLAN. Then create VM Networks for each logical network.

Then you create logical switch and use appropriate teaming mode. Then create a uplink port profile which will be used with the logical switch to specify what logical networks can connect to the logical switch.

Then you connect the logical switch to the correct NICs on the hyper-v servers and use the uplink port profile.

Thats shortly explained. You might want to read more here: http://blogs.technet.com/b/scvmm/archive/2013/01/08/virtual-networking-in-vmm-2012-sp1.aspx

Its pretty most the same in SP1.

Thanks for the clue Patrik.

I made this working using Virtual Network Adapter pointing to the specific VLAN and binding them to the appropriate hardware profile.

Cheers!
