VRTX Hyper-V management network
Generally, in non-clustered environments, for Hyper-V management, we configure a physically separate network adapter on a separate network connected to a PortShield group on a Sonicwall. We've found this to be a rather safe and secure arrangement as it keeps the Hyper-V servers themselves separate from the production LAN. It also makes troubleshooting much easier as LAN or LAN switch troubles rarely prevent us from accessing the Hyper-V servers remotely.
In a 2-blade VRTX cluster with an R1-2210 10GB switch currently set up with the Hyper-V servers sharing with the virtual switches the two teamed NICs that are exposed to the OS, can our usual setup be duplicated? We really want to get the Hyper-V servers off the LAN. My research so far suggests that a tagged VLAN might be the only solution as adding a separate network adapter for management doesn't appear to be an option on the VRTX.

Hi @2000cs,
As much as I would like to provide feedback or opinion, but configure deployment we are not able to provide support. I found this deployment guide for VRTX https://dell.to/3dWFkZQ which might help determine if the configuration can be similar to your environment.
