Question about VMWare View -- Security

So working on a possible solution here at work, serving corporate partners with access using VDI.

I'm talking about a scale of about 300 external vendors needing access for their employees, to our companies resources. Obviously a lot of these companies are competitors so having them all logging into VDIs and being able to communicate would be a bad thing.

My question is this, obviously we dont want partner X to connect to the VDI and be able to communicate with partner Y's VDI. Is there a way you can segregate virtual desktops, and keep Company X from being able to talk to Company Y?

Just some pointers would be nice, so much documentation it's hard to find what I'm looking for.

Well you can have firewall rules on the VMs to prevent them from communicating with each other. Beyond that, vSphere supports PVLANs so you can potentially block communication between the VMs at the vSwitch.
