Stefaan,

Since ESX uses virtual switches and VLAN's to separate the different networks
I would not recommend using it for any firewall application. I would never
use VLAN's to separate trusted and untrusted networks. Allthough I have not
seen anybody perform VLAN hopping there are papers that describe ways to do
it.

Regards,
Han.
