Hello,
The bladecenter was initially setup by a company and allows me to only create VM's from Vlan 2. The issue is that I am out of Ip's in that vlan and I wanted the ability to use another address space for the VM's. I've already created a new vlan 20.
Here is the current config of the switch. All I've added to these configurations from before was sw trunk allowed vlan add 20
Main Switch CISCO 4500
interface Port-channel1
switchport
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk native vlan 3
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1-3,20

interface GigabitEthernet5/39
description BLADECENTER-sw2-p17 Trunk Port
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk native vlan 3
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1-3,20
channel-group 1 mode on

interface GigabitEthernet6/2

blade switchport where host is contained
interface GigabitEthernet0/9
description blade9
switchport trunk native vlan 2
switchport trunk allowed vlan 2,20
switchport mode trunk.
End result is I can't use any vlans from that new range. I've been reading and thinking there are configuration changes I need to make on the ESX server itself with vlan tagging and such. Nothing like that is setup currently.
Thanks in advance.
