HPE VM Essentials Network settings

[shou1]

I assigned a port created for Compute to a virtual machine in the HPE VM Essentials network settings, but communication is only possible between the virtual machine and the physical host machine. I want to connect to the same network segment, but how can I do this?
The bridge port is created using cmpt, and the physical port is ens256.
Assign an IP address to the bridge port.

I have reviewed each screenshot.
Connecting the ens256 to an external switch should work if it's untagged.
I thought it might not work if it's tagged VLAN.

It doesn't seem directly related, but I was a bit concerned because I had never assigned an IP address to “cmpt” before.

Please tell me how to check whether the VLAN is tagged or untagged. Also, is the IP address assigned to ens256?

Whether the desired communication is untagged or tagged between the host and external switch depends on the configuration, so we recommend confirming this with your network administrator.

If communication must be tagged, you will likely need to create a port group in VM Essentials and configure the “VLAN ID”.
Please refer to the following:

We did not assign an IP address to ens256, which corresponds to the "cmpt" uplink.
This was because there was no need to assign an IP address.

This will result in an untagged configuration.

I think the configuration is the same as the management port, but the Compute port does not allow virtual machines to communicate externally.
If you use the management port, virtual machines can communicate externally.
