How to add vlan to AHV for Backup traffic | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content

Hi all,

We are migrating from ESXi to AHV.

I am looking for a way to add another vlan to the AHV hypervisor that will allow our third party backup solution in the same vlan to backup virtual machines using AHV snapshots. On ESXi we created an extra VMKernel interface with the BackupNFC server enabled for the same purpose and that works fine.

The reason for the extra vlan is that we do not want to transfer backups through the firewall. Our hypervisors and backup nodes are each in their own firewall separated vlans.
