I was just reading up on vMotion and found out it is recommended to have a dedicated link for vMotion traffic. Now I have been doing vMotion and Storage vMotion without any trouble with the default vswitch and VMKernal port, the one used for the management network. I noticed that vMotion is not checked on this one so does ESXi use that as default if no other VMkernal ports are selected for vMotion?
 
You must have a vmkernel on there with vMotion enabled. It won't work otherwise. Just double-confirmed that in my lab.
