Hyper-V Networking question


want follow microsoft recommendation , have dedicated nic host communication , (or more) nic's vm communications.

when connecting ports of our quad port nic network switch, 3 nic ports intended vm communication getting ip addresses dhcp server. hyper-v host view, these ip addresses reassigned new virtual adapters have identical names of our hyper-v networks. prefer that our hyper-v hosts can reached external systems on 1 dedicated ip address.

acording various microsoft descriptions (eg. "understanding networking hyper-v", http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&familyid=3fac6d40-d6b5-4658-bc54-62b925ed7eea#tm), it's possible create "dedicated external virtual network" purpose , disable virtual network adapter on hyper-v host. unfortunately, have found no description how implement scenario. following extract form document mentioned above contains link msdn site general wmi informations:
"quote: wmi can used implement dedicated virtual network without causing additional virtual network adapter appear in management os. please see following link more information virtualization wmi provider, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc136992(vs.85).aspx"

have 2 following questions:
1. possible , recommended disable virtual adapters dedicated vm communication on hyper-v host command "netsh interface set interface "<name of interface>" disabled
2. assumption correct scenario, vm's can communicate hyper-v host on network, reaching nic dedicated hyper-v management?

thank in advance clarification!

the easiest way figure out what start host 0 virtual networks, query network connections after creating each external or internal virtual network.

in doing way, see host interface list change, , helps folks understand other articles describe.
