Last but not least - to understand the reason for not supporting dvs - is t=
hat something that is in low demand or just not on the roadmap?=20

The reason for my previous comment, as you may know, dvs is now more or les=
s a standard. We were hoping that ACS 4 would have dvs support and were put=
ting off the larger CS deployment on-hold until dvs support would arrive (s=
ince some release notes mentioned dvs support with cisco) we just did not k=
now that would be so exclusive.

Any feedback as to when or if CS is planning to support vmware native dvs -=
 would be truly appreciated.

Thank you for making such a great product=20

Regards
ilya

So native VmWare distributed vswitch is not supported, but if I pay a small=
 truck of gold to Cisco and get Nexus line - it may work then. :)

At least now I know I need to avoid dvs in my setup.=20

Thank you for your response,

The Cisco Nexus 1000v is a distributed switch that is a replacement for the=
 VMWare dvSwitch.=20
The Nexus is supported in CloudPlatform as well as ACS 4.0. The VMWare dvSw=
itch is supported in neither.=20
