That's how we do our customer installations, with dedicated NICs for each
network. As long you assign them correctly they are truly separate. This is
easy to verify and demonstrate, ask them to test it!

Subject: [THIN] OT: VMWare ESX 3.x Internal / DMZ networks on same physical
server

 

We have dedicated physical NICs for the DMZ, Internal networks, and the
console.  Is anyone doing this today?  We are, and even received the
blessing of our Security team, but our Network Team now has concerns over
the security and are trying to stop us from moving any further in this
direction.  Everything I can find actually leads me to believe that this is
a solid solution, but I was curious if others here have had to deal with
this.  I don't want to jeopardize our security, but I also was not planning
on additional hardware for 2007 if I need to bring VMWare ESX up physically
in the DMZ.

Thanks in advance.
