VM1->vSwitch on host1->Physical Switch->vSwitch on host2->VM2
My goal: Replay a traffic file (.pcap) on VM1 and have all the packets show up on VM2.
My problem: The physical switch will not pass through VLAN tagged traffic. It drops it.
My concept: Encapsulate the traffic on the vSwitch so that the physical switch doesn't know the content, then expose the traffic once it hits the vSwitch on host2.
Possible? Or is there another way to reach my goal?
