Show Virtual Machine (HV) Mac address on phisical switch mac table


hi all,

i have little problem hyperv conf, have phisical pcs connected same phisical switch, , 1 of pc 2012r2 have role of hyperv. in hv environment have different vm connected on virtual switch in "internal" way machine on same subnet of phisical lan.

the problem if show mac addresses on phisical switch i'm not able see mac of virtual machine, seems virtual switch not forward vm mac address phisical swicth.

is there way have mac addresses available on phisical switch mac table?



vmware uses bridge type virtual switch, physical nic mac hidden physical switch infrastructure.  see vms.  physical infrastructure see direct vm.

hyper-v not this, physical nic mac present, , vm vnic macs present on port (if sniff).  physical infrastructure see forward switch vm.

in tables on physical switch, should still automatically update internal routing tables recognize this.  there arp sent out when vm started or migrated force update physical infrastructure routing tables.
