Man my copy and paste just is not liking me. Anyways, I saw posting about forcing the mac address every time, but I have not had a problem.
My problem is the port does not become active. I included the device settings as a reference. This is the status of the port:

I am just not able to get that port up. And since its not up I cant ping/ssh to the VMs. What do I need to do for vlans on my physical switch?
