ESXi Host
UCS Service Profile
The ESXi host provides the platform where virtual machines are running on. The service profile contains the configuration of the hardware in a Cisco UCS environment. Service Profile Templates or vSphere Auto Deploy can be used to ease the ESXi deployment process. In this example, a standalone service profile creation is shown.
For each vSwitch, it is recommended to configure two uplink interfaces with MTU 9000 as trunk. The VLAN assignment takes place in the port group configuration of the vSwitch.
