The naming of these devices within the VMs depends on their intended function. It is up to you to provide appropriate network connectivity between a VM and your IP network, using the host OS configuration and IP port cabling. Each configured VM virtual network device needs its own unique IP address. Additionally, a shared management IP address should be provisioned; this shared management IP address will migrate from one management device to the other depending on available IP connectivity with the management gateway.
