IP Subnet Allocation As Good as Physical VLAN?


per thread started few days ago, have moved our environment virtual adapter based using vmq , pair of teamed 10gbps ethernet adapters per physical host. (see: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en-us/4a164894-dcf6-484e-bd32-15179c67f3cd/separation-of-traffic-with-2-x-10gbps-nics?forum=winserverhyperv)

i planning roll out vlans @ physical layer , assign each vadapter 1 based on traffic type - however, each adapter has it's own unique subnet (10.0.1.0/24, 10.0.2.0/24, etc.) i'm wondering if there benefit had adding pvlans environment? aside few stragglers, our entire server environment hyper-v/vm based. utilize both iscsi , smb 3.0, again, traffic isolated own ip subnet , i've constrained smb specific pair of vadapters , iscsi vadapter pair.

i'd rather not add complexity of physical layer vlans unless there compelling reason so.

if don't need added security provided subnets, no, not need add them.  vlan usage has become common people forget networks ran fine without them many years, , still work fine.
