If you are like me, and used earlier versions of VMWare (ver4) then version 6 might be a little confusing when it comes to the networking architecture. When I used to use older versions of VMWare (never used vCenter) you just as signed a physical interface to a VM. While you can still do this, it's not as obvious how to do it.

Consider my example below, I three servers, all connected to a switch, and I am passing multicast traffice between them, that is being processed in a particular way at each stage. Basically I want an input, two processing stages, a storage device and an output.
