# ESXi Host

## Access

- **IP**: 10.2.0.12 (VLAN 0 / DEFAULT, management)
- **Version**: VMware ESXi 8.0.3 build-24280767 (Update 3, Patch 35)
- **Credentials**: govc / `Tn9.xKw-m4Vp` (Administrator role)
- **API access via govc**:
  ```bash
  GOVC_URL=https://10.2.0.12/sdk GOVC_USERNAME=govc GOVC_PASSWORD='Tn9.xKw-m4Vp' GOVC_INSECURE=true govc <command>
  ```
- **Do NOT use SSH** — ESXi keyboard-interactive auth is unreliable from this machine; use `govc` exclusively
- **Hardware**: HP, 2x Intel Xeon E5-2697 v4 (36 logical CPUs @ 2.3GHz), 256GB RAM
- **Boot time**: 2025-09-22

**Active uplinks**: vmnic3 (unused — no vSwitch), vmnic4 (vSwitch0), vmnic5 (jumboFrameSwitch)

## vSwitches

### vSwitch0 (vmnic4 — 25Gbps Mellanox, MTU 1500)

Carries VLAN-tagged traffic for management, LAN, IoT, and guest networks.

| Port Group | VLAN ID | Active Ports | Subnet |
|------------|---------|--------------|--------|
| DEFAULT_0 | 0 (untagged) | 1 | 10.2.0.0/24 (ESXi mgmt) |
| MGMT_1 | 0 (untagged) | 0 | — |
| GUEST_3 | 3 | 0 | — |
| LAN_100 | 100 | 7 | 10.100.0.0/24 |
| IOT_200 | 200 | 1 | 10.200.0.0/24 |

### jumboFrameSwitch (vmnic5 — 25Gbps Mellanox, MTU 9000)

Dedicated storage network with jumbo frames. Switch port 32 is configured as a trunk (`forward=all`, MGMT native) so VLAN 50 frames arrive tagged, matching the DATA_50 port group's VLAN ID.

| Port Group | VLAN ID | Active Ports | Subnet |
|------------|---------|--------------|--------|
| DATA_50 | 50 | 4 | 10.50.0.0/24 |

All port groups: promiscuous mode=No, forged transmits=No, MAC changes=No.

## VMkernel Interface

| Interface | IP | Netmask | Portgroup | MAC | Stack |
|-----------|-----|---------|-----------|-----|-------|
| vmk0 | 10.2.0.12 | 255.255.255.0 | DEFAULT_0 | 48:df:37:07:a9:6d | defaultTcpipStack |

- **Default gateway**: 10.2.0.1
- **DNS search**: localdomain (no DNS servers configured)
