Any particular reason they each require a physical NIC?

At any rate, Edit > Virtual Network Editor > Host Virtual Network Mapping. Place each NIC on a particular VMnet and then modify the virtual network settings on the VMs to the appropriate configuration.

Hi RTmarc,

Thanks! I will try it out. Why? Well its for my lab and all the virtual machines are servers, on a different subnets connecting with external devices.

I really wish Workstation would tag traffic for VLANs like ESX does...

Yeah, no joke. Seems like they need to blend a lot of the features/configuration of ESX with that of Workstation.
